OUTPUT:

  • D = 4.43 nC/m^2

Electric Flux Density Formula

The electric flux density is calculated by multiplying electric field (E) by the permittivity of the medium. The formula is as follows. As mentioned, E is electric field strength (V/m), Epsilon is material’s ability to permit electric fields (F/m) and D measures charge per unit area (C/m^2).

Electric Flux Density Formula

Where,

  • D = Flux density in C/m^2
  • epsilon = Permittivity in F/m
  • E = Electric field in V/m

Summary : The calculator helps students quickly compute flux density and understand how permittivity affects electric fields; crucial for scoring in EM numericals.
