From an electric field vector at one point, you can determine the direction of the electrostatic force on a test charge of known sign at that point. You can also determine the magnitude of the electrostatic force exerted per unit charge on a test charge at that point.
yes,the direction of electric force on a charge is tangent of field lines.
It has plenty of direction. The direction of the electric field at any point in it is the direction of the force that would be felt by an infinitesimally small positive charge placed at that point.
This is a matter of limits. If you are measuring the electric field at a point that is a distance off of an infinite sheet of charge the direction of the electric field will be perpendicular to the sheet due to the symmetry of the situation. We can think of the radius as the distance between a point on the sheet and the normal line to the sheet that passes through the point where the electric field is being considered. If we look at the addition to the electric field from the charge on the sheet as this radius approaches infinity the component of the electric field in the direction of the net electric field will approach 0.P.S. Drawing a diagram of the situation with arrows denoting the directions of force from different parts of the sheet can be very helpful in understanding.
TEM TE modes (Transverse Electric) have no electric field in the direction of propagation. * TM modes (Transverse Magnetic) have no magnetic field in the direction of propagation. * TEM modes (Transverse ElectroMagnetic) have no electric nor magnetic field in the direction of propagation. * Hybrid modes are those which have both electric and magnetic field components in the direction of propagation
The lines in each diagram represent an electric field. The stronger the field, the close together the lines are.
Speed & direction of the magnetic field.
Direction of the electric field vector is the direction of the force experienced by a charged particle in an external electric field.

Electric field intensity is related to electric potential by the equation E = -dV/dx, where E is the electric field intensity, V is the electric potential, and x is the distance in the direction of the field. Essentially, the electric field points in the direction of decreasing potential, and the magnitude of the field is related to the rate at which the potential changes.
We could just as well use a negative test charge to determine an electric field, but then the Electric field vector would point opposite the direction of the force on the test charge.

Introduce two opposite charged objects one AT A TIME and if they move IN THE SAME DIRECTION, they are in a gravitational field, if they move IN DIFFERENT direction they are in an electric field.
