Electric field is force over test charge (Vector) ================================================= Electric field at a point in space can be found by placing there a test charge and measuring the electrostatic force that is applied to it. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia, last formula in paragraph `__. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.electricity.vector.electric_field_vector_is_force_over_test_charge .. py:data:: test_charge Value of the test :attr:`~symplyphysics.symbols.electrodynamics.charge`.
