Figure shows the electric lines of force emerging from a charged body. If the electron field at A and B are EA and Es respectively and if the displacement between A and B is then:
Correct answer: C. EA>ES
- A. EA<ES
- B. EA=EB
- C. EA>ES
- D. None of these
Explanation
Field will be stronger where field lines are closer to each other i.e. EA>ES .

About Electrostatics
Electrostatics describes forces between charges through Coulomb's law, electric fields and field intensity, then uses electric potential to measure energy per unit charge. Capacitors store charge and electrical energy, with capacitance depending on geometry and dielectric material, not simply on the amount of charge present.
