In free space, a particle $A$ of charge $1\,\mu C$ is held fixed at a point $P.$ Another particle $B$ of the same charge and mass $4\,\mu g$ is kept at a distance of $1\,mm$ from $P$. If $B$ is released, then its velocity at a distance of $9\,mm$ from $P$ is [ Take $\frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}} = 9 \times {10^9}\,N{m^2}{C^{ - 2}}$ ]
This questions has statement$-1$ and statement$-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describe the two statements.
An insulating solid sphere of radius $R$ has a uniformly
positive charge density $\rho$. As a result of this uniform charge distribution there is a finite value of electric potential at the centre of the sphere, at the surface of the sphere and also at a point out side the sphere. The electric potential at infinite is zero.
Statement$ -1$ : When a charge $q$ is take from the centre of the surface of the sphere its potential energy changes by $\frac{{q\rho }}{{3{\varepsilon _0}}}$
Statement$ -2$ : The electric field at a distance $r(r < R)$ from centre of the sphere is $\frac{{\rho r}}{{3{\varepsilon _0}}}$
If an $\alpha$-particle and a proton are accelerated from rest by a potential difference of 1 megavolt then the ratio of their kinetic energy will be
There is a uniform spherically symmetric surface charge density at a distance $R_0$ from the origin. The charge distribution is initially at rest and starts expanding because of mutual repulsion. The figure that represents best the speed $V(R(t))$ of the distribution as a function of its instantaneous radius $R(t)$ is
Four equal charges $Q$ are placed at the four corners of a square of each side is $'a'$. Work done in removing a charge $-Q$ from its centre to infinity is
