Additional information
Volume charge density is a concept in electromagnetism that quantifies the amount of electric charge per unit volume in a given region of space. It describes how the electric charge is distributed within a three-dimensional region.
Mathematically, volume charge density (ρ) is defined as the ratio of the total electric charge (Q) within a given volume (V):
Volume charge density (ρ) = Q / V
The standard unit for volume charge density in the International System of Units (SI) is coulombs per cubic meter (C/m3). However, in some cases, microcoulombs per cubic centimeter (µC/cm3) or other units may be used for convenience.
