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

She should draw the filed lines as such;

C) Away from positive charge and toward the negative charge

Answer 2

option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The path on which an electric charge move in the electric field is called electric field line.

From a positive charge, the electric field line appears to come out and from a negative charge, the electric field line appears to go inside.

Here, one charge is positive and another is negative, so field line is going away from the positive charge and move towards the negative charge.
