Which of the following statements about electric field lines IS NOT TRUE 1) The number of lines leaving a positive charge or entering a charge negative is proportional to charge. 2) If the net charge is zero, the lines start at positive charges and end in negative charges. 3) Line density (the number of lines per unit area perpendicular to lines) is proportional to the magnitude of the field at that point. Electric field lines cross at the midpoint between charges of equal magnitude and sign. Assume there are no additional charges on the midpoint. 5) The direction of each line indicates the direction in which a charged particle It would positively move if placed at that point in the electric field with zero initial velocity.

Which statement is true? Magnetic field lines run from a south pole to a north pole. Magnetic field lines run from a north pole to a south pole. There are no magnetic field lines inside a magnet. Iron filings are attracted to a north pole but repelled from a south pole. Question 4 (1 point) Which statement is true? All protons carry the same amount of negative charge. Like charges repel and unlike charges attract. All electrons carry the same amount of positive charge. All of these.

Which of the following shouldn't Biot and Savart know when they begin to figure out their law? (a) A straight line of current generates the magnetic field rotating around the line. (b) The magnetic field strength generated by a current is proportional to the magnitude of current. (c) For a straight line of current, the strength of magnetic field is inversely proportional to the shorted distance to the line. (d) The formula for the magnetic field for the extremely short line element of current
