Study Notes
Electric Field Lines
- Electric field lines represent the direction and magnitude of the electric field at a given point in space.
- The density of electric field lines around a charged object represents the strength of the electric field, with more lines indicating a stronger electric field.
Significance of Electric Field Lines
- The number of electric field lines around a charged object is proportional to the magnitude of the electric charge, with more lines indicating a greater charge.
- The closer together the electric field lines are, the stronger the electric field is at that point.
