Force between two point charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ placed in vacuum at ' $r$ ' $\mathrm{cm}$ apart is $F$. Force between them when placed in a medium having dielectric $\mathrm{K}=5$ at $\mathrm{r} / 5$ $\mathrm{cm}$ apart will be:
$F / 25$
$5 \mathrm{~F}$
$F / 5$
$25 \mathrm{~F}$
Two pith balls carrying equal charges are suspended from a common point by strings of equal length, the equilibrium separation between them is $r.$ Now the strings are rigidly clamped at half the height. The equilibrium separation between the balls now become
According to Coulomb's Law, which is correct relation for the following diagram?
Figure represents a crystal unit of cesium chloride, $\mathrm{CsCl}$. The cesium atoms, represented by open circles are situated at the corners of a cube of side $0.40\,\mathrm{nm}$, whereas a $\mathrm{Cl}$ atom is situated at the centre of the cube. The $\mathrm{Cs}$ atoms are deficient in one electron while the $\mathrm{Cl}$ atom carries an excess electron.
$(i)$ What is the net electric field on the $\mathrm{Cl}$ atom due to eight $\mathrm{Cs}$ atoms ?
$(ii)$ Suppose that the $\mathrm{Cs}$ atom at the corner $A$ is missing. What is the net force now on the $\mathrm{Cl}$ atom due to seven remaining $\mathrm{Cs}$ atoms ?
Two point charges $ + 9e$ and $ + e$ are at $16\, cm$ away from each other. Where should another charge $q$ be placed between them so that the system remains in equilibrium
A charge of $Q$ coulomb is placed on a solid piece of metal of irregular shape. The charge will distribute itself
