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 is –ve and |A| gt |B|.
B. A is –ve and B is +ve and |A| = |B|.
C. Both are +ve but A gt B
D. Both are –ve but A gt B

Answer

A

Explanation

Electric field lines are coming out from positive charge and ends to negative charge, so A is positive, B is negative total number of electric field lines are more A than B so |A| > |B|.
