A ring of radius $R$ is charged uniformly with a charge $+\,Q$ . The electric field at a point on its axis at a distance $r$ from any point on the ring will be

A charged oil drop is suspended in a uniform field of $3 \times$ $10^{4} V / m$ so that it neither falls nor rises. The charge on the drop will be $…..\times 10^{-18}\; C$

(take the mass of the charge $=9.9 \times 10^{-15} kg$ and $g=10 m / s ^{2}$ )

Two point charges $q_{1}$ and $q_{2},$ of magnitude $+10^{-8} \;C$ and $-10^{-8}\; C ,$ respectively, are placed $0.1 \;m$ apart. Calculate the electric fields at points $A, B$ and $C$ shown in Figure

A point charge of $10\,\mu C$ is placed at the origin. At what location on the $X$-axis should a point charge of $40\,\mu\,C$ be placed so that the net electric field is zero at $x =2\,cm$ on the $X$-axis ?

$(a)$ Consider an arbitrary electrostatic field configuration. A small test charge is placed at a null point (i.e., where $E =0$ ) of the configuration. Show that the equilibrium of the test charge is necessarily unstable.

$(b)$ Verify this result for the simple configuration of two charges of the same magnitude and sign placed a certain distance apart.
