Question

Electric field exert force on

• A. charged or uncharged particles when they are in a state of rest or motion.
• B. charged particles when they are in a state of motion.
• C. charged particles when they are in a state of rest.
• D. charged particles when they are in a state of rest or motion.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

charged particles when they are in a state of rest or motion.

We know that force exerted by electric field is given by,

F = q E

So, electric field exert force on charged particles when they are in a state of rest or motion.
