Question

What can you say about the field at point 1 compared with the field at point 2? a. The field at point 1 is larger, because point 1 is not on a field line. b. The field at point 1 is larger, because the field lines are closer together in that region. c. The field at point 1 is zero, because point 1 is not on a field line. d. The field at point 2 is larger, because point 2 is on a field line.

Answer 1

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

b. The field at point 1 is larger, because the field lines are closer together in that region

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure in the attachment gives electric field by a positive charges

At point 1 the field lines are closer to each other hence, strength of electric field would be larger. Field lines are imaginary lines. And their relative closeness or separation decides the strength of the field at any particular point. Hence the correct answer would be

b.The field at point 1 is larger, because the field lines are closer together in that region.
