Question

Choose each correct statement regarding electric field lines.

a. electric field lines are closer together when the electric field is weaker

b. the electric field lines for a uniform field are parallel and equally spaced

c. electric field lines can never cross

d. more electric field lines will leave a 5.0 nC charge than a 2.0 nC charge

e. electric field lines start at negative charges and end on positive charges

f. the direction of the electric field at any point in space is tangent to the electric field line passing through that point in space

Explanation / Answer

a. False. when filed line density is higher electric field is stronger

b.True

c. True. If the two lines get crossed then there is no defined electric field at that point

d. True. Number of filed lines leaving is proportional to the charge

e. False

f.True
