Question

Some of the characteristics of lines of force include: i. they do not intersect one another; ii. they are continuous and start from positive to negative; iii. their magnitude is proportional to the number of lines; iv. the tangent to the lines of force gives the direction of the field.
Options
A i & ii
B ii & iii
C iii & iv
D i, ii, iii & iv
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

All four statements are standard, correct properties of electric field lines: they never cross, they run from + to - charges, field strength is shown by line density, and the tangent at any point gives the field direction there.
