AIIMS 2001 Physics Electric Field MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
Figure shows the electric lines of forces emerging from a charged body. If the electric field at A and B are Eₐ and Eᵦ respectively and if the displacement between A and B is r, then

A
Eₐ > Eᵦ
B
Eₐ < Eᵦ
C
Eₐ = Eᵦ
D
Eₐ = Eᵦ/r
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Electric field lines are denser where the field is stronger. If lines are denser at A than at B, then Eₐ > Eᵦ.
