The electrical force experienced by a unit positive charge is

The electrical force experienced by a unit positive charge is Correct Answer directly proportional to the electric field intensity

The correct answer is option 1) i.e. directly proportional to the electric field intensity

CONCEPT:

  • The electric field is defined as the electric force per unit charge. 

 A stationary charge q placed in an electric field intensity of E will experience an electrostatic force (F) given by:

F = qE

EXPLANATION:

  • The electric force experienced by a unit positive charge is F = qE. 
  • Since it is a unit charge, q = 1 unit. Therefore, F = E.
  • So, the electric force experienced by a unit positive charge is directly proportional to the electric field intensity.
