    Physics / electric charges, forces, and fields
    1. A proton moves in a region of constant electric field. Does it follow that the proton's velocity is parallel to the elctric field? Does it follow that the proton's acceleration is parallel to the electric field? Explain.
    2.A system consists of two charges of equal magnitude and opposite sign separated by a distance d. Since the total electri charge of this system is zero, can we conclude that thte electric field produced by the system is also zero? Does your answer depend on the separation d? Explain.

    Hi, ash12307!

    We do help people with homework on this site. But, the keyword here is "help". We don't directly answer homework questions for students here. If we did, how would that be helping them to learn how to come up with the answers themselves?

    If you use this site to get help with your homework, please do take some time to come up with and post what you think might be the answers yourself. If you do that, it's likely that you'll have someone very knowledgeable about whatever subject who'll be willing to discuss with you how and why your answers are correct or incorrect.

    Please also read the expectations concerning the posting of homework questions that can be found via clicking on the following link.

    Hello ash12307

    Well, I assume you thought about this question yourself first.
    So how did you approach this question so far? What do you suggest yourself is the correct answer, and why?
