Expert Answer
An electric line of force is an imaginary continuous line or curve drawn in an electric field such that
tangent to it at any point gives the direction of the electric force at that point.
The direction of a line of force is the direction along which a small free positive charge will move along the line.
It is always directed from positive charge to negative charge.
In order to point out the direction of an electric field we can draw a number of lines called electric lines of force.
characterstics of electric lines of force
- Lines of force originate from a positive charge and terminate to a negative charge.
- The tangent to the line of force indicates the direction of the electric field and electric force.
- Electric lines of force are always normal to the surface of charged body.
- Two electric lines of force cannot intersect each other.
- The line of force are imaginary but the field it represents as real.
- There are no lines of force inside the conductor.
