Question
10. What does the electric field of the previous configuration resemble? 11 For all the configurations, the following should be true statements. Circle the boldfaced choice that will make each one true. The electric field points in the direction of increasing / decreasing voltage. A positive charge released in an electric field will spontaneously move with against field lines. A positive charge released in an electric field will spontaneously move from regions of high / low potential to regions of high/low potential A negative charge released in an electric field will spontaneously move with / against field lines. A negative charge released in an electric field will spontaneously move from regions of high / low potential to regions of high / low potential.Explanation / Answer
1 the electric field points in the direction of decreasing direction as it always points in the direction that causes the change in it. E= -dV/dr for example electric field points away from positive point charge as r increases dv decreases so -dV/dr becomes positive.
2.the positive charge in the electric field moves along wirth field lines. as electric field moves from a positive potential to negative potential . force acting on charge in a electric field F=eE . electric field being a vector ,force will be acted in the direction of electric field lines which causes the motion of charged particle.
3.the charged particle released in electric field moves from high potential to loe potential.
4.negative charge dropped in electric field moves against the electric field lines as force F=qE is negative the direction of force is opposite too direction of electric field. hence negative charge moves against electric field lines.
5. a negative charge released electric field moves from low potential to high potential region.
