Two Stationary Point Charges $q _ { 1 }$ And $q _ { 2 }$

question 31

Multiple Choice

Two stationary point charges $q _ { 1 }$ and $q _ { 2 }$ are shown in the figure along with a sketch of some field lines representing the electric field produced by them. What can you deduce from the sketch?

• A) \(q _ { 1 }\) is negative and \(q _ { 2 }\) is positive; the magnitudes are equal.
• B) \(q _ { 1 }\) and \(q _ { 2 }\) have the same sign; the magnitude of \(q _ { 1 }\) is greater than the magnitude of \(q _ { 2 }\).
• C) \(q 1\) is negative and \(q _ { 2 }\) is positive; the magnitude of \(q _ { 1 }\) is less than the magnitude of \(q _ { 2 }\).
• D) \(q _ { 1 }\) and \(q _ { 2 }\) have the same sign; the magnitudes are equal.
• E) \(q _ { 1 }\) is positive and \(q _ { 2 }\) is negative; the magnitude of \(q _ { 1 }\) is greater than the magnitude of \(q _ { 2 }\).
