Electric Field Lines of a Positive Charge
Electric field lines emanating from a point where positive electric charge is suspended over a negatively charged infinite sheet. Electric field is a vector field which can be represented as a gradient of a scalar field, called electric potential. Therefore, electric force is a conservative force.
