If a negative charge is placed in an electric field, what direction will it be accelerated? a) in the direction of the field.
b) in the opposite direction of the field.
c) perpendicular to the direction of the field.
d) it will not be accelerated.
e) none of the above.

option B

Explanation:

the correct answer is option B

when negative charge is placed in electric field then direction will be accelerated in opposite direction of the field.

charged electric particle produce electric field and they exert force on other charged particle.

when a charged particle is positive it will accelerate in the direction of the electric field if the charge is negative then particle will accelerate in opposite direction of electric field.
