The presence of charge creates an electric field. The electric field is just a convenient quantity of how much another charge would move *if* it were placed near the first charge.

Is gamma radiation stopped by an electric field?
No, gamma rays are not stopped by an electric field.
Does light produce both electric and magnetic field?
light exhibit magnetic field but i cant say about electric Field...
What ionizing radiation is not affected by an electric field?
No electromagnetic radiation, whether ionizing or not, is affected by an electric field or by a magnetic field.
What is the classical explanation of a dc electric current in a metallic wave?
A changing magnetic field always produces an electric field, and conversely, a changing electric field always produces a magnetic field. This interaction of electric and magnetic forces gives rise to a condition in space known as an electromagnetic field.
Are the paths of neutrons affected by an electric field?
Since neutrons have no charge, they are not influenced measurably by an electric field.
What part of an electric fan makes a magnetic field?
a motor
Did Michael Faraday prove that a moving magnetic field makes and electric field?
yes he did in April 25,1930
Why does the electric field inside a dielectric decrease when it is placed in an external electric field?
The net electric field inside a dielectric decreases due to polarization. The external electric field polarizes the dielectric and an electric field is produced due to this polarization. This internal electric field will be opposite to the external electric field and therefore the net electric field inside the dielectric will be less.
What is the electric field half way to the centre of a conducting sphere charged to a potential of 15v?
electric field inside the conducting sphere is ZER0..! because their are equivalent charges all around the sphere which makes the net force zero hence we can say that the electric field is also zero.!
Which of the following are created by an arrangement of electric charge or a current?
for apex its: a quantum field, a gravitational field
Can an electric field exist without a magnetic field?
An electric field can exist even without the presence of a magnetic field. An example of this is a stationary electric field.
Gets stronger as you get closer to an electric charge?
The electric field gets stronger as you get closer to an electric charge.
What is the area around an electric charge which is strongest closest to the charged particle?
It's the electric field.
Why electric field lines cannot have sudden brakes in between them?
electric field lines represents electric field at that point but if it has break somewhere then it signifies the absence of electric field and it is not possible.....
What do lines represent in an electirc field diagram?
The lines in each diagram represent an electric field. The stronger the field, the close together the lines are.
Relationship between electric field intensity and electric potential?
Electric field intensity is related to electric potential by the equation E = -dV/dx, where E is the electric field intensity, V is the electric potential, and x is the distance in the direction of the field. Essentially, the electric field points in the direction of decreasing potential, and the magnitude of the field is related to the rate at which the potential changes.
Can gravitational be added to electric field to get the total field?
No. The sum of the gravitational field and the electric field is a useless concept.
