Which among the curves shown in figure cannot possibly represent electrostatic field lines ?

Give characteristics of electric field lines.

Magnetic field lines ......

Which of the following is not a characteristic of electric field lines ? (a) Field lines are continuous curves. (b) Two field lines never intersect each other. (c) Field lines form closed loops. (d) Field lines start from positive charge and end to negative charge.

Look at the graphs (a) to (d) (Fig. 3.20) carefully and state, with reasons, which of these cannot possibly represent onedimensional motion of a particle.

List the properties of magnetic field lines .

(a) Show that the normal component of electrostatic field has a discontinuity from one side of a charged surface to another given by (E_(2)-E_(1)).n = sigma/epsilon_(0) where hatn is a unit vector normal to the surface at a point and sigma is the surface charge density at that point. (The direction of hatn is from side 1 to side 2.) Hence, show that just outside a conductor, the electric field is sigma hatn //epsilon_(0) . (b) Show that the tangential component of electrostatic field is continuous from one side of a charged surface to another. [Hint: For (a), use Gauss’s law. For, (b) use the fact that work done by electrostatic field on a closed loop is zero.]

Many of the diagrams given in Fig 5.7 show magnetic field lines (thick lines in the figure) wrongly. Point out what is wrong with them. Some of them may describe electrostatic field lines correctly. Point out which ones.

Why 10^(6) km cannot be represented by Mkm?

Inside a conductor electrostatic field is zero'. Explain.
