Sketch field lines due to (i) two equal positive charges near each other (ii) a dipole.

Explanation

To sketch the electric field lines due to two equal positive charges near each other and a dipole, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Sketching the Field Lines for Two Equal Positive Charges
1. **Draw Two Positive Charges**: Start by drawing two circles to represent the two equal positive charges. Label them as \( +q_1 \) and \( +q_2 \).
2. **Indicate the Direction of Electric Field Lines**: Since both charges are positive, the electric field lines will radiate outward from each charge.
3. **Draw the Field Lines**:
- From \( +q_1 \), draw several lines radiating outward in all directions.
- From \( +q_2 \), do the same, ensuring that the lines from both charges do not cross each other.
