  2. Electric potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_potential

    Electric potential (also called the electric field potential, potential drop, the electrostatic potential) is defined as the amount of work/energy needed per unit of electric charge to move the charge from a reference point to a specific point in an electric field.

  3. Magnetic flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_flux

    In physics, specifically electromagnetism, the magnetic flux through a surface is the surface integral of the normal component of the magnetic field B over that surface. It is usually denoted Φ or Φ B.

  4. Electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_field

    An electromagnetic field (also EM field) is a physical field, mathematical functions of position and time, representing the influences on and due to electric charges. [1] ...

  5. Electric field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_field

    An electric field (sometimes called E-field [1]) is a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles.In classical electromagnetism, the electric field of a single charge (or group of charges) describes their capacity to exert attractive or repulsive forces on another charged object.

  6. Tesla (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_(unit)

    The tesla (symbol: T) is the unit of magnetic flux density (also called magnetic B-field strength) in the International System of Units (SI).. One tesla is equal to one weber per square metre.

  7. Coulomb's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb's_law

    Coulomb's inverse-square law, or simply Coulomb's law, is an experimental law [1] of physics that calculates the amount of force between two electrically charged particles at rest.

  8. Gauss's law for magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss's_law_for_magnetism

    In physics, Gauss's law for magnetism is one of the four Maxwell's equations that underlie classical electrodynamics.It states that the magnetic field B has divergence equal to zero, [1] in other words, that it is a solenoidal vector field.

    Robert A. Millikan in 1891. Starting in 1908, while a professor at the University of Chicago, Millikan, with the significant input of Fletcher, [8] the "able assistance of Mr. J. Yinbong Lee", and after improving his setup, published his seminal study in 1913. [9]
