Electric field strength is location dependent, and its magnitude decreases as the distance from a location to the source increases.
Q. Why are electric field lines curves?
When you come to the ends of the plates, the field starts to resemble that associated with two point charges instead of a sheet of charge. Note that as you move away from the two point charges an equal distance apart, the lines look like those at the ends of your parallel plate capacitor (curved lines).
Q. Where is the electric field zero between a positive and negative charge?
There is a spot along the line connecting the charges, just to the “far” side of the positive charge (on the side away from the negative charge) where the electric field is zero.
Q. What happens when two or more electric fields overlap?
When two or more electric fields overlap the individual electric fields are vectorially summed. The electric fields formed by a set of two positive charges and by a set of two negative charges are both symmetrical (if equal charge).
Q. How do you find the electric field at a point P?
An electric field E at point P (or any other point) means that _if_ a “test charge” q is brought to that point, that “test charge” q will find a force F that is given by F = E q. Remember, tho’, this is true only as a vector equation!
Q. What is the electric field strength at a distance of 10cm from a charge of 2 ΜC?
What is the electric field strength at a distance of 10 cm from a charge of 2 μC? So a one-coulomb charge placed there would feel a force of 180,000 newtons. A point charge Q is far from all other charges. At a distance of 2 m from Q, the electric field is 20 N/C.
An electric field lines are continous curves because a charge experiences a continous force when traced in an electrostatic field . The field line cannot have sudden breaks because the charge moves continously and does not jump from one point to another. Hope it helps.
Q. Why can’t two electric field lines cross?
Electric lines of force never intersect because, at the point of intersection, two tangents can be drawn to the two lines of force. This means two directions of the electric field at the point of intersection, which is not possible.
Q. Why are electric field lines not closed curves?
The electrostatic field lines do not form closed loop because no electric field line exist inside the charged body.
Q. What are the types of electric field?
There are two types of electric fields: static (or electrostatic) fields and dynamic (or time-varying) fields. Electric fields have a definite magnitude and specific direction.
