7. Which one of the following statements best describes the concept of the electric field? a) The electric field is a vector quantity that is the reaction force of electrons. b) The electric field at each point is the potential energy of a test charge divided by the amount of the test charge. c) The electric field is a distribution of vectors at points due to the presence of one or more charged objects. d) The electric field is a scalar quantity related to the total amount of charge on one or more charged objects. e) The electric field is a scalar field, which has a magnitude at each given point, similar to the temperature or pressure field.

(c)

Explanation:

The electric field is a distribution is a distribution of vectors at point due to the presence of one or more charged objects.

If two or more charged particles are present in a system then the net electric field at a point is the vector addition of all the charges.

For example if a negative and a positive charge is present then electric field of negative charge is towards  the negative charge while it is away for positive charge.  

option d and e are wrong as Electric field is a vector quantity

elly's long hair:

a. if the salon only takes cash, then this isn't the problem. it doesn't matter how much she has in her checking account.   she can't get a haircut until she has the cash.

b. if she has overdraft protection, then there's no problem.   she can go ahead and write a check that her account can't cover, then sometime later, pay the bank some outrageous usury for loaning her a few bucks for a few days, but with beautiful hair.

c. if elly has some principles, and doesn't want to write a bad check, then now she has a problem.   her desire for the new hairstyle is in conflict with her honesty and integrity.

d.   if the bank will not process a check she writes, then even if she had a million $$ in her account, she couldn't use any of it.   the amount she has in her account is not the problem.   and if i may suggest, she might as well close her checking account, and put the money where it'll work for her.   it's not doing her a bit of good in a checking account, since she can't write any checks.

justin can't pay the full balance:

a. he can't even handle the credit limit he has now.   under no circumstances should he ask for a higher limit.

b.   he can ask for the grace period to be extended.   but that's no solution, the bank will almost certainly refuse anyway, and there are much better options.   he knew the rules of his credit card when he started using it.

c.   he definitely should pay the interest on the balance, plus as much of the balance as he can cover at the same time.

d.   he definitely should pay the minimum otherwise they could shut down his card.   he should also pay as much more as he possibly can.   he should also remember the awkward situation he's in, stop buying stuff on credit that he can't afford, and avoid adding any more debt.

i'd say that justin's best best option isn't on this list of choices.   what he has to do:   pay as much as he can at least the minimum payment plus as much more as he can and then avoid adding more debt.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
