Answer is Wrong!
Answer is Right!
The correct answer is: A. away from the charge.
A positive charge creates an electric field that points away from the charge. This is because positive charges
have a net outward electric field. The electric field lines point from positive charges to negative charges.Option B is incorrect because the electric field lines point away from the charge, not towards it.
Option C is incorrect because the electric field lines only point away from the charge, not both away from
and towards the charge.Option D is incorrect because the electric field lines do point away from the charge.
