How do you draw field lines for a positive charge and a negative charge?

You don't


A what will move in the direction of the arrows on the electric field lines?

positive charge


Where do electric field lines point?

The electric field lines are directed away from a positive charge and towards a negative charge so that at any point , the tangent to a field line gives the direction of electric field at that point.

If you place a charge into an electric field it will move in the direction indicated by the electric field lines?

it will occure if the charge is positive, other wise it will move to opposite direction.


How do you compare and contrast the electrical field around a negative charge and the electric field around a positive charge?

Around a positive charge we have a repulsive field and around negative charge we have an attractive field.


Do electric field lines always form closed loops?

yes because they start from the positive charge and ends at the negative charge so closed path


What are three facts about electric field lines?

1. Electric field lines of force originate from the positive charge and terminate at the negative charge. 2. Electric field lines of force can never intersect each other. 3. Electric field lines of force are not present inside the conductor, it is because electric field inside the conductor is always zero. 4. Electric field lines of force are always perpendicular to the surface of conductor. 5. Curved electric field lines are always non-uniform in nature.


How do you draw isloted positive charge?

You can diagrammatically represent an isolated positive charge by drawing a small circle at the centre of the page such that straight lines are moving out of the charge - the lines represent the electric field surrounding the charge.


A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?

Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)


How do the electric field lines around a positive charge look?

They look like the spokes on a 3D wheel, the stickers on a spherical cactus, or thequills on a scared porcupine. Every field line is a straight line pointing directly awayfrom the positive charge.


What is true about an electric field around a positive charge?

It will be directed away from the positive charge. It will attract any other negative charge and repel any positive charge. Its magnitude is given by E= KQ/R where K = 9x 109 C2m-2N-1 Q is the charge producing field R is the point where electric field is to be calculated
