Answer:

For a positive point charge, the lines radiate outward. While, for a negative point charge, the lines converge inward.

Explanation:

The electric field produced by a single point charge has a radial shape and follows an inverse square law. The magnitude is given by

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the magnitude of the charge

r is the distance from the charge

The direction of the field depends on the sign of the charge. In particular, we have:

  • For a positive charge, the direction of the field is out of the charge
  • FOr a negative charge, the direction of the field is towards the charge

This is due to the fact that the direction of the field shows the direction of the force that a positive test charge would experience in this field. Therefore, since a positive test charge would feel a repulsive force in the field produced by a positive charge, then the direction of the field is outward; on the other hand, a positive test charge would feel an attractive force in the field produced by a positive charge, therefore the direction of the field is inward.

1. The planet Jupiter completes a revolution of the sun in 11.5 years. Express it in seconds. Given that one year= 3.154 × 10^7
xenn [34]

Answer:

The planet Jupiter completes one revolution of the sun in 362710000 seconds. Long time, right?

Explanation:

3.154x10^7=3.154x10000000=31540000

11.5x31540000=362710000
