Answer:
no relation between force & attraction
Explanation:
This explains attraction between two unlike charges. The lines of force have a tendency to expand laterally so as to exert a lateral pressure on neigh bouring lines of force. ... This explains repulsion between two similar charges.

Electric field lines contract lengthwise it showing the attraction between opposite charges.
The behaviour of Electric field lines:
- Electric field lines tend to constrict lengthwise while expanding laterally.
- The lateral expansion denotes repulsion between like charges, while the longitudinal contraction suggests attraction between unlike charges.
Why do electric field lines contract?
- Because electric field lines originate from a positive charge and travel to a negative charge, they contract longitudinally, indicating a force of attraction between opposite charges.
Therefore, electric field lines contracting lengthwise shows the attraction between opposite charges.
