The volume charge density is measured in terms of __________.

The correct answer is option 2):(Coulombs per cubic meter )

Concept:

Volume charge density:

It is defined as the quantity of charge per unit volume. Its SI unit is C/m³.

If ΔQ charge is contained in the elemental volume Δv, the volume charge density ρ will be

\(\Rightarrow \rho=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta v}\)

Additional InformationLinear charge density: It is defined as the quantity of charge per unit length. Its SI unit is C/m. If ΔQ charge is contained in the line element Δl, the linear charge density λ will be,

\( \lambda=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta l}\)

Surface charge density: It is defined as the quantity of charge per unit area. Its SI unit is C/m2. If ΔQ charge is contained in the elemental area Δs, the surface charge density σ will be,

\(\Rightarrow \sigma=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta s}\)
