Electric Flux, Magnetic Flux, Electric Density, Magnetic Density, Electric Intensity and Magnetic Intensity Formulas & Equations

Electric Flux Formula:

Electric flux is the electric field lines passing through an area A. It’s a vector quantity.

ΦE = EA

ΦE = EA cosθ

Where

• ΦE = Electric flux

• E = Electric field

• A = Area of the surface

• θ = Angle between E and A

Non Uniform Electric Filed

dΦE = E dA

Electric flux for a closed Gaussian surface

ΦE = ∯s E dA = Q/ε0

Where

• ΦE = Electric flux

• E = Electric field

• A = Area of the surface

• Q = electric charge inside the surfaces of A

• ε0 = permittivity of free space (also known as universal or electric constant which is equal to ε0 ≈ 8.854 187 817… x 10−12 F·m−1.)

The above equations is one of the four Maxwell’s equations also known as Gauss’ law related to an electric field.

Electric Flux Density Formula:

The electric flux per unit area is called the electric flux density.

D = ΦE /A

Other forms of equations for electric flux density are as follow:

D = εE = q/4πr2

• A = Area

It is a scalar quantity and the unit is C/m2 i.e surface charge density “σ”.

Force per unit charge is known as electric field intensity.

E = F/Q

Where:

• E = Electric Field Intensity

• F = Force

• Q = Electric Charge

The electric filed strength in volt per meter formula is as follow:

ε = e/d

Magnetic Flux Formula:

The number of magnetic lines passing through area A is known as Magnetic flux.

Φb = BA cosθ

Where

• Φb = magnetic flux

• B = Magnetic field

• A = area

• θ = angle between B and A

It is a vector quantity and the general form of magnetic flux can be calculated by using the following equation:
