Question
Write any two properties of electric field lines.

Answer

(i) The tangent drawn at any point to the line of electric force expresses the direction of the resultant electric field at that point.
(ii) Electric lines of force run from positive charge and end at netative charge.
Note: Students can also write other properties of electric field lines.

Suppose a charged particle moves with a velocity v near a wire carrying an electric current. A magnetic force, therefore, acts on it. If the same particle is seen from a frame moving with velocity v in the same direction, the charge will be found at rest. Will the magnetic force become zero in this frame? Will the magnetic field become zero in this frame?
