Question

1. electric - field lines associated with a positive charge and a negative charge are shown below. at which location, a through e shown in the figure, is the magnitude of the electric field greatest? a) location a b) location b c) location c d) location d e) location e

Explanation:

Step1: Recall electric - field line property

The magnitude of the electric field is proportional to the density of electric - field lines.

Step2: Analyze line density at each location

At location A, the electric - field lines are the most densely packed compared to locations B, C, D, and E.

Answer:

A. Location A
