Question

the diagram shows two charged objects, x and y. based on the field lines, what are the charges of the objects? x: positive y: negative x: negative y: neutral x: negative y: neutral x: positive y: positive

Explanation:

Electric field lines start from positive charges and end on negative charges. In the given diagram, the field lines are repelling each other and are emanating from both X and Y. This indicates that both X and Y have the same - type of charge, and since field lines originate from positive charges, both are positive.

Answer:

X: positive
Y: positive
