The Electric Field calculator computes the electric field based on the strength of the magnetic field and the speed of light.

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

  • (B) This is the strength of the magnetic field

Electric Field (E): The calculator returns the strength of the electric field in Newtons per Coulomb.  However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.
