Correct Answer - Option 2 : Electric field

The correct answer is option 2) i.e. Electric field

CONCEPT

  • Electric fieldThe region around an electric charge in which it can influence other charges is known as the electric field
    • The electric field intensity (E) at any point is defined as the force experienced by a unit charge placed at that location.

It is given by:

\(E = \frac{F}{q}\)

EXPLANATION:

The electric field intensity at a point is given by:

 \(E = \frac{F}{q}\) .

  • Therefore, the force acting per unit positive test charge at a location is a measure of the intensity of the electric field.

  • Electric potential is the difference in potential energy per unit charge between two points in an electric field.
  • Coulomb force is the force of interaction between electric charges separated by a distance.
  • Gravity is the universal force of attraction acting between all matter.
