A strong electric field directed toward a charge will exert a force on the charge, causing it to experience an acceleration in the direction of the field if it is positive, or in the opposite direction if it is negative. The force experienced by the charge will depend on the magnitude of the field and the charge itself.
What else can I help you with?
What is an electric field around a negative charge like?
The electric field around a negative charge radiates outward, with field lines directed toward the charge. This means that a positive test charge placed in this field would be attracted toward the negative charge. The strength of the field decreases with distance from the negative charge.
What direction does the electric field point at a position directly east of a negative charge?
The electric field points toward the negative charge.
Which of the following is true about the electric field around an electric charge?
The electric field around an electric charge is a vector field that exerts a force on other charges placed in the field. The strength of the electric field decreases with distance from the charge following the inverse square law. The direction of the electric field is radially outward from a positive charge and radially inward toward a negative charge.
An electric field is directed from left to right A proton is placed within the field What does the proton feel as a result of the field and why?
The 'direction' of the electrostatic (E) field is defined as the direction of the force on a positive charge in the field. The proton carries a positive charge, so when immersed in the E field directed from left to right, there is a force on the proton directed toward the right, and if you let go of the proton, it will go shooting off to the right.
How are the lines of force drawn around a single charge electric field?
always towards the charge

What is the electrial charge on plate that cause the beam to bend toward the plate?
The electrical charge on the plate that causes the beam to bend toward it is negative. When a charged particle or beam, which is typically positive, moves through an electric field created by the negatively charged plate, it experiences an attractive force toward the plate. This results in the beam bending toward the plate due to the influence of the electric field.

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)
What is the electrical charge on the plate that causes the beam to bend toward that plate?
The electrical charge on the plate that causes the beam to bend toward it is negative. This negative charge creates an electric field that interacts with the positively charged ions in the beam, causing them to be attracted towards the negatively charged plate.
How are the lines of force drawn around a single charge electric field?
always towards the charge
In which direction does the electric field point at position directly east of a positive charge?
Yes. The electric field in physics is represented by a vector, it has three components governing the field strength in the up-down, left-right and forward-backwards directions.
The electric field of a point charge always points away from the charge?
If the given point charge is of positive one then the field points away from the charge. This is because we define the field at a point as the FORCE acting on unit POSITIVE charge. Like charges have to repel and hence the direction. If, other wise, the point charge is negative then electric field due to this negative charge would be towards the negative and not away from it.
Was Sparta or Athens more attractive toward money?
I think that Athens was more directed toward money than Sparta, because they wern't directed toward war and were more about enjoying life than war.
What is the greek meaning of hate?
To have a great aversion to, with a strong desire that evil should befall the person toward whom the feeling is directed; to dislike intensely; to detest; as, to hate one's enemies; to hate hypocrisy., To be very unwilling; followed by an infinitive, or a substantive clause with that; as, to hate to get into debt; to hate that anything should be wasted., To love less, relatively., Strong aversion coupled with desire that evil should befall the person toward whom the feeling is directed; as exercised toward things, intense dislike; hatred; detestation; -- opposed to love.
