Electrostatic lines of force are drawn such that they originate from positive charges and terminate on negative charges. They emerge perpendicular to the surface of the charged object and do not intersect each other. The density of lines indicates the strength of the electric field.
What else can I help you with?
Is it possible for electrostatic lines to intersect?
No. Lines of the electrostatic field don't intersect. A 'line' of the electrostatic field is an imaginary thing that shows the force on a tiny 'test charge' placed at any point. If two 'lines' intersected, it would mean that a tiny test charge at that point would feel a force in two different directions, and would have a choice of which way to go. But that doesn't happen ... the force at any point in the field is in a single, definite direction.
How are the lines of force drawn around a single charge electric field?
always towards the charge
What are magnetic lines of force called?
Magnetic lines of force are called magnetic field lines.
Why are electric field drawn with arrows?
Electric field lines are drawn with arrows to show the direction of the force that a positive test charge would experience if placed in the field. The direction of the electric field at any point is the direction that a positive test charge would move when placed in the field at that point.
What is the number of electrical lines of force emeging from 1c of positive charge in vaccum?
Electrical field lines is not something you count. The lines are only drawn for visualization; you can draw as many or as few lines as you want - whatever makes the drawing clear. Relevant physical quantities include the amount of charge, and the electric field strength at different points in space.

Iron filings scattered around a magnet will be most strongly drawn toward the?
Magnetic lines of force.
How are the lines of force drawn around a single charge electric field?
always towards the charge
How many lines can be drawn in one point?
Infinite lines can be drawn from a point
Can a square be drawn with no lines of symmetry?
A square by definition has lines of symmetry. Therefore a square cannot be drawn without any lines of symmetry.
How many lines of symmetry can be drawn in a hexagon?
5 lines is symmetry
What are lines drawn at right angles to each other?
They are perpendicular lines
How many lines can be drawn passing through two given line?
Through two given lines, there can be either zero, one, or infinitely many lines that can be drawn, depending on their relationship. If the two lines are parallel, no line can pass through both. If they intersect, exactly one line can be drawn through their intersection point. If they are coincident (the same line), then infinitely many lines can be drawn through them.
How do you form two squares with 7 lines?
This diagram is an example. The bolded lines are the lines you should draw._________ __________|/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||-----------|-------------|Note: The top solid lines should be drawn, and the dashed lines on the bottom would be drawn, also. The slashes are just filling.
What electric line of force can touch?
the lines of force are not real. these lines of force are imaginary lines. so we can not touch it.
Can lines of symmetry be drawn in a parallelogram?
Not normally
How many lines of symmetry can be drawn in an equilateral triangle?
3 lines of symmetry.
