Question

Why do electric field lines never cross?

crossed electric field lines violates the conservation of charge.

crossed field lines could only be produced if a positive and negative charge occupied the same space.

The electric field at that point would have to be tangent to both field lines, and would have to point in two directions at a single location.

Crossed field lines can only be produced by an infinite amount of charge.

electric field is a vector quantity .It has only one direction
