The spatial distribution of the electric field due to charges `(A,B)` is shown in figure. Which of the following statements is correct?

Options

A. `A` is `+ve` and `B-ve` and `|A|gt|B|`
B. `A` is `-ve` and `B+ve, |A|=|B|`
C. Both are `+ve` but `AgtB`
D. Both are `-ve` but `AgtB`

Answer

a

Explanation

Electric lines of force usually start (i.e., diverge out) from positive charge and end(i.e., converge) on negative charge or extendes to infinity.
Thus, `A` is positive charge and `B` is negative charge.
Also density of lines at `A` is more than that at `B`, i.e., `|A|gt|B|`.
