MCQ

Select the correct statement : (Only force on a particle is due to electric field)

A
A charged particle always moves along the electric line of force.
✓
A charged particle may move along the line of force
C
A charge particle never moves along the line of force
D
A charged particle moves along the line of force only if released from rest.

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

A charged particle may move along the line of force

b
If field is straight then the charge moves along the straight line. if the fielss is a curve then the electrostatic force is not sufficient to change the direction along the curved field line.
