Question

Moira is drawing the electric field lines around a pair of charges. One charge is positive, and the other charge is negative.

How should she draw the field lines?
a)away from each charge and meeting in the middle
b)away from each charge and curving away from one another
c)away from the positive charge and toward the negative charge
d)away from the negative charge and toward the positive charge

Answer 1

it is c

Step-by-step explanation:

just took the test on edg :)

Answer 2

By the properties of electric field lines we know that

electric field lines originates from positive charge and terminates at negative charge

Also two electric field lines never intersects

so here we know that we have two different charges

one charge is positive charge while other is negative charge

so here field lines must originates from positive charge and terminates at negative charge

so correct answer will be

c)away from the positive charge and toward the negative charge
