Define 'Linear charge density' and surface charge density at a point.
Open in App
Solution
Linear charge density:-
The linear charge density is a ratio of a particle's charge dq (situated in a infinite line ) to the infinitesinal line element (thw samll length where the element is situated)
line charge density λ=aqde
total charge q=∫L0λdl
Surface charge density :-
the surface charge density is a ratio of the charge on the particular surface to the area of surface (ds)
