Motion inside a Uniform Electric Field Calculator
The Motion inside a Uniform Electric Field Calculator will calculate the:
- Acceleration caused on a charge inside a uniform electric field due to the electric force
- Moving time of a charge between two parallel plates charged oppositely
- Total displacement of a charge inside a uniform electric field
Please note that for the purpose of calculations, the Motion inside a Uniform Electric Field Calculator applies the following logic:
- Medium is considered as vacuum or air (ϵ = 1)
- The charge is initially considered at rest in contact with the plate which has the same type of charge
The acceleration caused on a charge inside a uniform electric field due to the electric force is m/s2 [metre per square second] |
The moving time of a charge between two parallel plates charged oppositely s [second] |
The total displacement of a charge inside a uniform electric field m [metre] |
