MCQ
What is the unit of surface charge density in the SI unit?
  • A
    C
  • B
    C/ m
  • C
    C/ m2
  • D
    C/ m3

Answer

  1. C/ m2

Explanation:

Surface charge density means how much charge is stored in the unit surface area of a conductor.

So, it’s unit will be$=\frac{\text{the unit of the charge}}{\text{the unit of area}}$. In SI the unit of charge is Coulomb and the unit of area is m2.
