  2. Charge density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_density

    Volume charge density (symbolized by the Greek letter ρ) is the quantity of charge per unit volume, measured in the SI system in coulombs per cubic meter (C⋅m −3), at any point in a volume. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Surface charge density (σ) is the quantity of charge per unit area, measured in coulombs per square meter (C⋅m −2 ), at any ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electromagnetism...

    The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal n̂, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.

  4. Linear density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_density

    Consider a long, thin wire of charge and length .To calculate the average linear charge density, ¯, of this one dimensional object, we can simply divide the total charge, , by the total length, : ¯ = If we describe the wire as having a varying charge (one that varies as a function of position along the length of the wire, ), we can write: = Each infinitesimal unit of charge, , is equal to ...

  5. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    the total electric charge density (total charge per unit volume), ρ, and; the total electric current density (total current per unit area), J. The universal constants appearing in the equations (the first two ones explicitly only in the SI formulation) are: the permittivity of free space, ε 0, and; the permeability of free space, μ 0, and

  6. Gauss's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss's_law

    By the relation between charge and charge density, this equation is equivalent to: = for any volume V. In order for this equation to be simultaneously true for every possible volume V , it is necessary (and sufficient) for the integrands to be equal everywhere.

  7. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    Using the number density as a function of spatial coordinates, the total number of objects N in the entire volume V can be calculated as = (,,), where dV = dx dy dz is a volume element. If each object possesses the same mass m 0 , the total mass m of all the objects in the volume V can be expressed as m = ∭ V m 0 n ( x , y , z ) d V ...

  9. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    If mass density is ρ, the mass of the parcel is density multiplied by its volume m = ρA dx. The change in pressure over distance d x is d p and flow velocity v = ⁠ d x / d t ⁠ . Apply Newton's second law of motion (force = mass × acceleration) and recognizing that the effective force on the parcel of fluid is − A d p .
