The displacement of a charge $Q$ in the electric field $E = {e_1}\hat i + {e_2}\hat j + {e_3}\hat k$ is $\hat r = a\hat i + b\hat j$. The work done is

$Q\sqrt {{{(a{e_1})}^2} + {{(b{e_2})}^2}} $
$Q({e_1} + {e_2})\sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} $
$Q(\sqrt {e_1^2 + e_2^2)} \;(a + b)$
Three charges $Q,( + q)$ and $( + q)$ are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side l as shown in the figure. If the net electrostatic energy of the system is zero, then $Q$ is equal to
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
In a hydrogen atom, the electron and proton are bound at a distance of about $0.53\; \mathring A:$
$(a)$ Estimate the potential energy of the system in $eV$, taking the zero of the potential energy at infinite separation of the electron from proton.
$(b)$ What is the minimum work required to free the electron, given that its kinetic energy in the orbit is half the magnitude of potential energy obtained in $(a)?$

Two identical particles of mass m carry a charge $Q$ each. Initially one is at rest on a smooth horizontal plane and the other is projected along the plane directly towards first particle from a large distance with speed $v.$ The closest distance of approach be
