$-5Q$
$+3Q$
$-4Q$
$+4Q$
Two spherical conductors $A$ and $B$ of radii $1\ mm$ and $2\ mm$ are separated by a distance of $5\ cm$ and are uniformly charged. If the spheres are connected by a conducting wire then in equilibrium condition, the ratio of the magnitude of the electric fields at the surfaces of spheres $A$ and $B$ is
Two isolated metallic solid spheres of radii $R$ and $2 R$ are charged such that both have same charge density $\sigma$. The spheres are then connected by a thin conducting wire. If the new charge density of the bigger sphere is $\sigma^{\prime}$. The ratio $\frac{\sigma^{\prime}}{\sigma}$ is
The dielectric strength of air at $NTP$ is $3 \times {10^6}\,V/m$ then the maximum charge that can be given to a spherical conductor of radius $3\, m$ is
Conduction electrons are almost uniformly distributed within a conducting plate. When placed in an electrostatic field $\overrightarrow E $, the electric field within the plate
The vehicles carrying inflammable fluids usually have metallic chains touching the ground:
