Question

The diagram shows the electric field around two charged objects.

There are two charged spheres labeled W and X. There are vectors in all directions around each sphere and pointing toward the sphere.

What are the correct labels for the image?

W: Positive
X: Positive
W: Negative
X: Negative
W: Negative
X: Positive
W: Positive
X: Negative
GPT-4o mini
In the given scenario, the electric field vectors are pointing toward both spheres W and X, which indicates that both spheres are negatively charged. This is because electric field lines point towards negative charges and away from positive charges.

Therefore, the correct labels for the image would be:

W: Negative
X: Negative
