Three infinitely long charged thin sheets are placed as shown in figure. The magnitude of electric field at the point $P$ is $\frac{x \sigma}{\epsilon_0}$. The value of $x$ is_____. (all quantities are measured in $SI$ units).
Obtain Coulomb’s law from Gauss’s law.
A thin infinite sheet charge and an infinite line charge of respective charge densities $+\sigma$ and $+\lambda$ are placed parallel at $5\,m$ distance from each other. Points $P$ and $Q$, are at $\frac{3}{\pi} m$ and $\frac{4}{\pi} m$ perpendicular distance from line charge towards sheet charge, respectively. $E_P$ and $E_Q$ are the magnitudes of resultant electric field intensities at point $P$ and $Q$, respectively. If $\frac{E_p}{E_Q}=\frac{4}{a}$ for $2|\sigma|=|\lambda|$. Then the value of $a$ is ...........
Let a total charge $2Q$ be distributed in a sphere of radius $R$, with the charge density given by $\rho(r) = kr$, where $r$ is the distance from the centre. Two charges $A$ and $B$, of $-Q$ each, are placed on diametrically opposite points, at equal distance, $a$, from the centre. If $A$ and $B$ do not experience any force, then
A conducting sphere of radius $R = 20$ $cm$ is given a charge $Q = 16\,\mu C$. What is $\overrightarrow E $ at centre
