The potential (in volts ) of a charge distribution is given by
$V(z)\, = \,30 - 5{z^2}for\,\left| z \right| \le 1\,m$
$V(z)\, = \,35 - 10\,\left| z \right|for\,\left| z \right| \ge 1\,m$
$V(z)$ does not depend on $x$ and $y.$ If this potential is generated by a constant charge per unit volume $\rho _0$ (in units of $\varepsilon _0$ ) which is spread over a certain region, then choose the correct statement
${\rho _0}\, = \,20\,{\varepsilon _0}$ in the entire region
${\rho _0}\, = \,10\,{\varepsilon _0}$ for $\left| z \right|\, \le 1\,\,m$ and $P_0 = 0$ elsewhere
${\rho _0}\, = \,20\,{\varepsilon _0}$ for $\left| z \right|\, \le 1\,\,m$ and $P_0 = 0$ elsewhere
${\rho _0}\, = \,40\,{\varepsilon _0}$ in the entire region
A cathode ray tube contains a pair of parallel metal plates $1.0\, cm$ apart and $3.0\, cm$ long. A narrow horizontal beam of electron with a velocity $3 \times 10^7\, m/s$ passed down the tube midway between the plates. When a potential difference of $550\, V$ is maintained across the plates, it is found that the electron beam is so deflected that it just strikes the end of one of the plates. Then the specific charge of the electron in $C/kg$ is
The electric potential at a point in free space due to charge $Q$ coulomb is $V=Q$$ \times {10^{11}}\,V$ . The electric field at that point is
The figure gives the electric potential $V$ as a function of distance through five regions on $x$-axis. Which of the following is true for the electric field $E$ in these regions
The electrostatic potential inside a charged spherical ball is given by $\phi= a{r^2} + b$ where $r$ is the distance from the centre and $a, b$ are constants. Then the charge density inside the ball is:
