Electric field lines emanating from a point positive electric charge suspended over an infinite sheet of conducting material.

The electric field is a component of the electromagnetic field. It is a vector field and is generated by electric charges or time-varying magnetic fields, as described by Maxwell's equations. The concept of an electric field was introduced by Michael Faraday.

ସଂଜ୍ଞା

The electric field $\mathbf {E}$ at a given point is defined as the (vectorial) force $\mathbf {F}$ that would be exerted on a stationary test particle of unit charge by electromagnetic forces (i.e. the Lorentz force). A particle of charge $q$ would be subject to a force $\mathbf {F} =q\cdot \mathbf {E}$.

Its SI units are newtons per coulomb (N⋅C⁻¹) or, equivalently, volts per metre (V⋅m⁻¹), which in terms of SI base units are kg⋅m⋅s⁻³⋅A⁻¹.
