They cross over one another between charges.
They never cross.

Respuesta :

They point towards a negative charge.
They point away from a positive charge.
They never cross.

Answer: The correct statements are "They point away from a positive charge" and "They never cross".

Explanation:

Electric field lines are the regions around the charged particle in which the electric force can be experienced.

The properties of the electric fields are as follows:

(1) The two electric field lines never cross each other. Otherwise, it will point to different direction at a point.

(2) The electric field is directed outward for the positive charge.

(3)The electric field is directed inward for the negative charge.

Therefore, the correct statements are "They point away from a positive charge" and "They never cross".
