Answer:
b. The field at point 1 is larger, because the field lines are closer together in that region
Explanation:
In the figure in the attachment gives electric field by a positive charges
At point 1 the field lines are closer to each other hence, strength of electric field would be larger. Field lines are imaginary lines. And their relative closeness or separation decides the strength of the field at any particular point. Hence the correct answer would be
b.The field at point 1 is larger, because the field lines are closer together in that region.
