The Charge per unit Length calculator computes teh chart per unit length based on the charge and the unit length:
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (Q) This is the charge
- (L) This is the length
Charge per Unit Length (λ): The calculator returns the charge per unit length in Couloumbs per meter.
The Math Science
The formula fo the Chare per Unit Length is:
λ = Q/L
where:
- λ= charge per unit length
- Q = charge
- L = unit length
