A bullet of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is fired towards a solid uniformly charged sphere of radius $R$ and total charge $+ q$. If it strikes the surface of sphere with speed $u$, find the minimum speed $u$ so that it can penetrate through the sphere. (Neglect all resistance forces or friction acting on bullet except electrostatic forces)

Three charges $-q, Q$ and $-q$ are placed respectively at equal distances on a straight line. If the potential energy of the system of three charges is zero, then what is the ratio of $Q: q$ ?

This question contains Statement$-1$ and Statement$-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement$-1$ : For a charged particle moving from point $P$ to point $Q$, the net work done by an electrostatic field on the particle is independent of the path connecting point $P$ to point $Q$.
Statement$-2$ : The net work done by a conservative force on an object moving along a closed loop is zero.

The diagram shows three infinitely long uniform line charges placed on the $X, Y $ and $Z$ axis. The work done in moving a unit positive charge from $(1, 1, 1) $ to $(0, 1, 1) $ is equal to

Figure shows a charge array known as an electric quadrupole. For a point on the axis of the quadrupole, obtain the dependence of potential on $r$ for $r / a>>1,$ and contrast your results with that due to an electric dipole, and an electric monopole (i.e., a single charge).
