Question

Choose whether each of the following statements is true or false.

1. All net charges can be written as Q = +or- Ne, where N is an integer and e is the charge of a proton.
2. A negative point charge in an electric field always accelerates in the opposite direction of the electric field.
3. The total electric field at any location in space always points towards or away from a charge.
4. Electric field lines never diverge from a point in space.
5. Electric field lines never cross at a point in space.
6. A positive point charge in an electric field always travels in the direction of the electric field.

Please HELP! I don't know how to do this conceptual question!

Explanation / Answer

2) true 3)    true 4) flase 5) true 6) true 1) where Q= + or - Ne so if we tale proton the charge is Q = +Ne if we take elctron the charge is Q - Ne 2) from the intensity of elecric field   force experiencied by unit positive charge gives intensity of electric field of point so positve charges are moving elctric field direction but negative charges are moving oppsite of electric field and get be acclerated . 3) in space we have positive or negative charges so the total electic field at any location in space    is towards   in the case of negative charge and away in the case of positive charge 4) in general electric field lines always begin on positive charge and end on a negative charge   and do no stop in mid space . they are diverged. 5)   if it cross electric field have two directions which is not poossible 6) from the intesity of electric field force expereinced by a positve charge in a electric field so elctric force acting on charge in the same direction of electri field so positve charge inelectric field alway stravel in direction of electric field.
