NEET Physics Electric Field Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Electric field due to a positive charge (i) Radially inward (b) Electric field due to a negative charge (ii) Field lines diverge (c) Orientation of area element in electric field (iii) Projected area normal to E (d) Component of electric field along area element (iv) Electric flux calculation
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-ii, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The electric field due to a positive charge points radially outward (ii), while that due to a negative charge points radially inward (i). The orientation of the area element is important as it affects the projected area normal to the electric field (iii) when calculating electric flux (iv).
