Three charges $Q,\, + q$ and $ + q$ are placed at the vertices of a right-angled isosceles triangle as shown. The net electrostatic energy of the configuration is zero if $Q$ is equal to
$\frac{{ - q}}{{1 + \sqrt 2 }}$
$\frac{{ - 2q}}{{2 + \sqrt 2 }}$
$ - 2q$
$ + q$
In a region, electric field varies as $E = 2x^2 -4$ where $x$ is the distance in metre from origin along $x-$ axis. A positive charge of $1\,\mu C$ is released with minimum velocity from infinity for crossing the origin, then
A positively charged ring is in $y-z$ plane with its centre at origin. A positive test charge $q_0$, held at origin is released along $x$-axis, then its speed
Two identical thin rings, each of radius $R $ meter are coaxially placed at distance $R$ meter apart. If $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ coulomb are respectively the charges uniformly spread on the two rings, the work done in moving a charge $q$ from the centre of one ring to that of the other is
If an $\alpha$-particle and a proton are accelerated from rest by a potential difference of 1 megavolt then the ratio of their kinetic energy will be
Assertion : Electric potential and electric potential energy are different quantities.
Reason : For a system of positive test charge and point charge electric potential energy $=$ electric potential.
