- B The electric line of force do not pass through an insulator but can pass through a conductor.
- C The electric line of force do not intersect each other.
- D Electric intensity is small in' a region where the lines of force are crowded.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) The electric line of force do not intersect each other.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Some properties of electric lines of force:
Electric lines of force are imaginary lines.
They are a geometrical representation of an electric field.
A tangent to the line of force indicates the direction of the electric field.
Electric lines of force are always normal to the surface of a charged body.
Two electric lines of force cannot intersect each other.
There are no lines of force inside a conductor.
The number density of electric lines of force is proportional to electric field intensity.
Electric lines of force exist when both positive and negative charges are near each other.
