In the figure below, the electric field lines for two chargedparticles are shown. The lower particle has charge
q1,
while the upper particle has charge
q2.
A particle with charge q2 is abovea particle with charge q1. The field linesfrom q2 emanate outward. On its top,twelve lines curve awayfrom q2 toward infinity. On itsbottom, six lines curve down and awayfrom q2, then bend to curve intoward q1, terminatingon q1.
(a)
Which charge is larger in magnitude?
q1q2 Thecharges are equal in magnitude.
(b)
What is the sign of
q1?
positivenegative The magnitude iszero.
(c)
What is the sign of
q2?
positivenegative The magnitude iszero.
