The tiny ball at the end of the thread shown in figure has a mass of $0.5 \, g$ and is placed in a horizontal electric field of intensity $500\, N/C$. It is in equilibrium in the position shown. The magnitude and sign of the charge on the ball is .....$\mu C$
$+ 5.7$
$- 5.7$
$+ 17$
$- 17$
What is called electric field ?
In the following four situations charged particles are at equal distance from the origin. Arrange them the magnitude of the net electric field at origin greatest first
Two charges $\pm 10\; \mu C$ are placed $5.0\; mm$ apart. Determine the electric field at $(a)$ a point $P$ on the axis of the dipole $15 cm$ away from its centre $O$ on the side of the positive charge, as shown in Figure $(a),$ and $(b)$ a point $Q , 15\; cm$ away from $O$ on a line passing through $O$ and normal to the axis of the dipole, as shown in Figure.
What is called electric field intensity ? Write its $SI$ unit.
Two point charges of $20\,\mu \,C$ and $80\,\mu \,C$ are $10\,cm$ apart. Where will the electric field strength be zero on the line joining the charges from $20\,\mu \,C$ charge......$m$
