Question

The figure shows the E-field in the plane of two point charges.

1)Q1 is positive.
2)Q1 and Q2 have the same sign.
3)A ? charge at a would accelerate to the left.
4)A + charge at c would accelerate to the right.
5)The magnitude of E is the same at a and b.
6)The size of Q1 is larger than that of Q2.

****answers in picture are giving incorrect response**

The figure shows the E-field in the plane of two point charges. True Q1 is positive. False Q1 and Q2 have the same sign True A charge at a would accelerate to the left. False C A charge at c would accelerate to the right True The magnitude of E is the same at a and b. True C The size of Q1 is larger than that of Q2

Explanation / Answer

here,

the electric feild emerges out from a +ve charge and emerges into a -ve charge

so,

correct statements are

Q1 is positive charged

Q2 is negative charged

A + charge at c would accelrate towards right

The size of Q1 is larger than that of Q2 (as the number of field lines are more at Q1)
