Question

What is an electric field? (choose all that are true) a) A vector field created by a charged particle.

b) The field created when one charged particle is brought close to another charged particle.
c) A scalar field created by a charged particle.
d) A vector field created only by positive charges.
e) None of the above.

Answer 1

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is option A

An electric field is a vector field created by charged particle.

Electric field is mathematically defined as the ratio of the vector component of the force to the charge in coulomb.

Si unit of Electric field is N/C

Electric field is created by the electric charge or by the varying magnetic field.

Electric field is responsible for the attractive force between the electron and atomic nucleus.
