An infinite number of charges, each of charge $1 \,\mu C$ are placed on the $x$-axis with co-ordinates $x = 1, 2,4, 8, ....\infty$. If a charge of $1\, C$ is kept at the origin, then what is the net force acting on $1\, C$ charge....$N$

$9000$

$12000$

$24000$

$36000$

Solution

(b) The schematic diagram of distribution of charges on $x-$axis is shown in figure below :
Total force acting on $1\, C$ charge is given by
$F = \frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}\left[ {\frac{{1 \times 1 \times {{10}^{ – 6}}}}{{{{(1)}^2}}} + \frac{{1 \times 1 \times {{10}^{ – 6}}}}{{{{(2)}^2}}}} \right.$
$\left. { + \frac{{1 \times 1 \times {{10}^{ – 6}}}}{{{{(4)}^2}}} + \frac{{1 \times 1 \times {{10}^{ – 6}}}}{{{{(8)}^2}}} + ….\infty } \right]$
$ = \frac{{{{10}^{ – 6}}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}\left( {\frac{1}{1} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{{16}} + \frac{1}{{64}} + …\infty } \right) = \,9 \times {10^9} \times {10^{ – 6}}\left( {\frac{1}{{1 – \frac{1}{4}}}} \right)$
$ = 9 \times {10^9} \times {10^{ – 6}} \times \frac{4}{3} = 9 \times {10^3} \times \frac{4}{3}$$= 12000\,N$

Two equally charged, identical metal spheres $A$ and $B$ repel each other with a force '$F$'. The spheres are kept fixed with a distance '$r$' between them. A third identical, but uncharged sphere $C$ is brought in contact with $A$ and then placed at the mid-point of the line joining $A$ and $B$. The magnitude of the net electric force on $C$ is
