Electric intensity being a vector quantity always points_______________?
Correct answer: A. along the direction of force experienced by a unit positive charge
- A. along the direction of force experienced by a unit positive charge
- B. opposite to the direction of force experienced by a unit positive charge
- C. perpendicular to the direction of force experienced by a uit positive charge
- D. any of above
Explanation
The electric field direction is defined as the direction of force on a positive test charge, and a unit positive charge experiences force in the field direction. A negative charge would experience force in the opposite direction.
