- Can you explain why option C is wrong in today's DPS Q7? The one about electric field lines.
-
-
-
-
- Great question! Option C says "Electric field lines can intersect each other." This is incorrect because:
- โข Electric field lines never intersect โ at the point of intersection, there would be two different directions of the electric field, which is impossible.
- โข I see you've made a similar mistake in Electrostatic Potential (Day 3) โ want me to pull up that question for revision?
-
-
-
-
- Yes please! And give me a similar practice question.
-
-
-
-
- Here's your previous mistake from Electrostatic Potential (attempted 19 Jul):
- "Two point charges +4ฮผC and -2ฮผC are placed 10cm apart. Where is the electric field zero?"
- ๐ Similar question: Three charges +2q, -q, and +3q are placed at vertices of an equilateral triangle. Find the point where net electric field is zero.
- Want me to walk through the solution step by step? ๐ค
