Centripetal force
Centripetal force is a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed towards the centre around which the body is moving.
Electric field
An electric field is a region of space where a charge experiences a force.
Electric field strength
The electric field strength $E$ is defined as the force per unit charge experienced by a small positive test charge $q$.
Electric potential
Electric potential is the amount of work done per unit charge in bringing a small positive test charge from infinity to a point in an electric field.
Electric potential energy
Electric potential energy is the energy stored in a system of charged particles due to their positions relative to each other.
Magnetic flux density
The strength of a magnetic field, measured in tesla (T). It fixes the size of the force a field exerts on a moving charge or a current-carrying wire.
