The electric field depicts the force exerted on other electrically charged objects by the electrically charged particle the field is surrounding. The electric field is a vector field with SI units of newtons per coulomb (\(N C^{-1}\)) or, equivalently, volts per metre (\(V m^{-1}\) ). The SI base units of the electric field are \(kg m s^{-3} A^{-1}\). The strength or magnitude of the field at a given point is defined as the force that would be exerted on a positive test charge of 1 coulomb placed at that point (http://qudt.org/schema/qudt/LatexString)
