β 8y agoThe electric field points directly away from a positive charge. Therefore, at a position directly north of a positive charge, the electric field would also point directly away from the positive charge.
The electric field at a position directly east of a positive charge points radially away from the positive charge, in a direction to the east.
The electric field points away from a positive charge in all directions, meaning it would also point away to the south of the charge.
A positive charge will move in the direction of the arrows on the electric field lines. Electric field lines show the direction a positive test charge would move if placed in the field.
No, an electric field has both strength and direction. The strength of the electric field is represented by the magnitude of the electric field vector, while the direction indicates the direction in which a positive test charge would move if placed in the field.
Velocity can have positive or negative value depending on the direction of the change in position. Positive velocity indicates motion in one direction, while negative velocity indicates motion in the opposite direction.

Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)
Yes, a charge placed in an electric field will experience a force and move in the direction of the electric field lines if it is positive, or opposite to the direction if the charge is negative. The force on the charge is proportional to the charge itself and the strength of the electric field at that location.
The direction of the dipole moment of an electric dipole from negative to positive charge is chosen as a convention to align with the direction of the electric field produced by the dipole. This convention allows for easy calculation and understanding of how the dipole interacts with external electric fields.
Positive electric fields point away from positive charges and towards negative charges, while negative electric fields point towards positive charges and away from negative charges. In both cases, the direction indicates the direction that a positive test charge would move if placed in that field.
from positive terminal to negative terminal
Electric field lines are drawn with arrows to show the direction of the force that a positive test charge would experience if placed in the field. The direction of the electric field at any point is the direction that a positive test charge would move when placed in the field at that point.
The direction of the electric field is opposite to that of the force if the charge is negative. This is because negative charges experience a force in the direction opposite to the electric field, while positive charges experience a force in the same direction as the electric field.
