Question

The figure shows some of the electric field lines corresponding to an electric field. The figure suggests that the electric field is:

hintHint:


The magnitude of Electric field is proportional to the density of electric field lines

The correct answer is:



    • The magnitude of Electric field is proportional to the density of electric field lines
    • Here density of electric field lines at A and C is same. So the electric filed at A and C will be the same. i,e EA=EC
    • E.F. Line density at A and C is greater as compare to line density at B so EA=EC>EB
