An electrostatic field line leaves at angle α from point charge q 1 and connects with point charge –q 2 at angle β (see figure).
Then find the relationship between α and β:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
q 1 sin 2 
= q 2 sin 2 
Sol. flux leaving q 1 is equal to flux entering –q 2 .
(1 – cosα) 
= 
q 1 sin 2 
= q 2 sin 2
