Introduction

The Charge Force Calculator is a valuable tool for those looking to determine the force exerted by a charged particle within an electric field. Understanding how charge and electric field strength interact can be essential in various physics and engineering applications. This calculator simplifies the process of calculating charge force by providing a user-friendly interface.

How to Use

To calculate the charge force, follow these simple steps:

1. Input the electric field strength (N/C) in the designated field.
2. Enter the charge of the particle (Coulombs) in the second field.
3. Click the “Calculate” button to obtain the result.

The calculator will instantly compute the charge force (N) based on the provided values.

Formula

The formula used by this calculator is as follows:

$CF=E\cdot q$

Where:

• $CF$ represents the Charge Force (in Newtons, N).
• $E$ is the electric field strength (in Newtons per Coulomb, N/C).
• $q$ is the charge of the particle (in Coulombs, C).

Example

Suppose you have an electric field strength of 100 N/C and a charge of 2 C. Using the formula, the charge force can be calculated as follows:

$CF=100\text{N/C}\times 2\text{C}=200\text{N}$

The Charge Force in this case is 200 Newtons.
