the lines of force are not real. these lines of force are imaginary lines. so we can not touch it.

Is the direction of the electric force on a charge is tangent to the field line?
yes,the direction of electric force on a charge is tangent of field lines.
Does any force act on a point charge is moving in a electric field at right angle to the field line?
Yes. A force acts on the charge perpendicular to the plane defined by the charge velocity and the electric field line of force. The Electric field is is equivalent to and magnetic field E=cB, where c is the speed of light. This causes a power field P= cqvxB = c(qvxB) = cForce. Maxwell was the first to predict that light was a form of electricity when he found this relationship, E=cB. Maxwell noticed that light and electric fields had the same speed, c.
What is the relationship between an electric force and an electric field?
An electric force is the force on an electric charge or an electrically charged object when immersed in an electric field.
Does an electromagnet use an electric force or a magnetic force?
it uses electric force
Is electricity a force?
Yes The electric force is a force by which electric charges act on each other; the electric field is the associated field.
Is a force that acts at a distance?
The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.The electric force, the magnetic force and gravity, all act at a distance.
What is an electric force?
Coulomb attraction/repulsion is an electrical force.
What is the definition of electrical force?
Electric force is the force applied on 2 electric charges, by those 2 electric charges.
What is a region around a charged object where an electric force is present?
electric force
On what does electric force depend that is analogous to mass in gravitational force?
Electric charge
This exerts a force on anything that has an electrical charge?
An electric field has what are called lines of force that radiate outward from the electric charge that creates them. It is the "touch" or the interaction with these lines of force that allow an electric field to exert a force (an electrostatic force) on anything with an electric charge.A fundamental law of electrostatics is that like charges repel and opposite charges attract. A charge will have an electric field around it, and if another charge is nearby, the fields of the charges will interact. Like charges will "push" on each other, while opposite charges will "pull" on each other. It's the fields of the respective charges that interact to cause the effects we see.All electric charges have associated electric fields around them. It is possible to "see" the electric fields like we "see" gravimetric fields. Both forces can "reach across" space to interact with objects at a distance from the source of the force. The field lines (lines of force) carry the force outward and are the means by which interaction occurs.
How do you deal safely with a wire dangling from an electric line?
Remain clear of the wire that is hanging from an overhead line and get in touch with the distribution's utility company immediately. They have the proper safety equipment to deal with situations like this.
