maximim electric charge per unit volume of space Explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_density In electromagnetism, charge density is a measure of electric charge per unit volume of space, in one, two or three dimensions. More specifically: the linear, surface, or volume charge density is the amount of electric charge per unit length, surface area, or volume, respectively. The respective SI units are C·m−1, C·m−2 or C·m−3.[1] Regarding the sentence, I think some parts are more obvious than others. Which part are your having trouble with? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 44 mins (2016-10-19 11:32:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The verbs are all necessary and correctly conjugated, but perhaps the sentence is a bit longwinded and ambiguous. I hope this makes it clearer: “If the total quantity… [that was created by the movement of the powder] was induced on the chime, this would have exceeded the maximum charge density that any surface can hold in air.” -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 46 mins (2016-10-19 11:34:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, the comma and adding the implicit 'that' in those 2 places. |
