Electric field lines
Electric field lines
The concept of electric field lines was originally due to Faraday who
envisioned that the space around a charge is filled with “lines of force”.
The field lines are originated from positive charges and terminated at
negative charges, and they are unbroken in vacuum.
The relationship between the
electrical field and field lines
Electric field lines with arrows indicate the local field directions, and
their density in a plane perpendicular to the local field represents the
magnitude of the local field.
Suppose that there are N field
lines originated from a positive
charge q, then we have the
density of field lines given by
N / 4πr2 at a distance r from the
charge.
Note that if N = q / ε0 then we
recover E = q / 4πε0 r2.
Field lines repel each other
Field lines are smooth
