Three charges $+Q, q, +Q$ are placed respectively, at distance, $0, \frac d2$ and $d$ from the origin, on the $x-$ axis. If the net force experienced by $+Q$, placed at $x = 0$, is zero, then value of $q$ is
$-\frac Q2$
$+\frac Q2$
$+\frac Q4$
$-\frac Q4$
Three point charges $q,-2 q$ and $2 q$ are placed on $x$-axis at a distance $x=0, x=\frac{3}{4} R$ and $x=R$ respectively from origin as shown. If $q =2 \times 10^{-6}\,C$ and $R =2\,cm$, the magnitude of net force experienced by the charge $-2 q$ is .......... $N$
Two charges $q$ and $-3q$ are placed fixed on $x-axis$ separated by distance $'d'$. Where should a third charge $2q$ be placed such that it will not experience any force ?
Four point charges $q_{A}=2\; \mu C, q_{B}=-5\; \mu C,$ $q_{C}=2\; \mu C,$ and $q_{D}=-5\;\mu C$ are located at the corners of a square $ABCD$ of side $10\; cm .$ What is the force on a charge of $1 \;\mu C$ placed at the centre of the square?
A paisa coin is made up of $\mathrm{Al - Mg}$ alloy and weighs $0.75\, g$ It is electrically neutral and contains equal amounts of positive and negative charge of magnitude $34.8$ $\mathrm{kC}$. Suppose that these equal charges were concentrated in two point charges separated by :
$(i)$ $1$ $\mathrm{cm}$ $(\sim \frac{1}{2} \times $ diagonal of the one paisa coin $)$
$(ii)$ $100\,\mathrm{m}$ $(\sim $ length of a long building $)$
$(iii)$ $10^6$ $\mathrm{m}$ (radius of the earth).
Find the force on each such point charge in each of the three cases. What do you conclude from these results ?
Two spheres $A$ and $B$ of radius $4\,cm$ and $6\,cm$ are given charges of $80\,\mu c$ and $40\,\mu c$ respectively. If they are connected by a fine wire, the amount of charge flowing from one to the other is
