Answer :

Properties of an Electric Field

The following are the properties of an electric field.

  1. Field lines never intersect each other.
  2. They are perpendicular to the surface charge.
  3. The field is strong when the lines are close together, and it is weak when the field lines move apart from each other.
  4. The number of field lines is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge.
  5. The electric field line starts from the positive charge and ends from negative charge.
  6. If the charge is single, then they start or end at infinity.
