Task 2: Coulomb's law and electric fields
1. In this unit, you were learning about different yet similar laws of physics -
Newton's universal law of gravitation and Coulomb's law of electrostatics.
Describe one similarity and one difference for these two laws.

Figure 2
a. Refer to Figure 1:
i. State whether the source charge is positively or negatively charged.
ii. Figure 1 contains arrows that are outwardly pointing. By convention, state how
the directions of field lines are detected.
b. Comparing Figure 1 and Figure 2, you will notice Figure 2 does not have any
arrowheads. Observe the sign of charges for each source charge, (in Figure 2)
and state the direction the arrowheads should be pointing to make it accurate.
