Question
What do you mean by electric field intensity ?

Answer

The electric field Intensity at a point is the force experienced by a unit positive charge placed at that point. Electric Field Intensity is a vector quantity. It is denoted by 'E', Electric Field $=F/q,$ Unit of E is NC-1 or $Vm^{-1}.$
