An isolated sphere of radius $R$ contains uniform volume distribution of positive charge. Which of the curve shown below, correctly illustrates the dependence of the magnitude of the electric field of the sphere as a function of the distance $r$ from its centre?
The electric field $\vec E = {E_0}y\hat j$ acts in the space in which a cylinder of radius $r$ and length $l$ is placed with its axis parallel to $y-$ axis. The charge inside the volume of cylinder is
Two fixed, identical conducting plates $(\alpha $ and $\beta )$, each of surface area $S$ are charged to $-\mathrm{Q}$ and $\mathrm{q}$, respectively, where $Q{\rm{ }}\, > \,{\rm{ }}q{\rm{ }}\, > \,{\rm{ }}0.$ A third identical plate $(\gamma )$, free to move is located on the other side of the plate with charge $q$ at a distance $d$ as per figure. The third plate is released and collides with the plate $\beta $. Assume the collision is elastic and the time of collision is sufficient to redistribute charge amongst $\beta $ and $\gamma $.
$(a)$ Find the electric field acting on the plate $\gamma $ before collision.
$(b)$ Find the charges on $\beta $ and $\gamma $ after the collision.
$(c)$ Find the velocity of the plate $\gamma $ after the collision and at a distance $d$ from the plate $\beta $.
