Time period of a block suspended from the upper plate of a parallel plate capacitor by a spring of stiffness $k$ is $T$. When block is uncharged. If a charge $q$ is given to the block them, the new time period of oscillation will be

$(a)$ Consider an arbitrary electrostatic field configuration. A small test charge is placed at a null point (i.e., where $E =0$ ) of the configuration. Show that the equilibrium of the test charge is necessarily unstable.

$(b)$ Verify this result for the simple configuration of two charges of the same magnitude and sign placed a certain distance apart.

Suppose a uniformly charged wall provides a uniform electric field of $2 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{C}$ normally. A charged particle of mass $2 \mathrm{~g}$ being suspended through a silk thread of length $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ and remain stayed at a distance of $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ from the wall. Then the charge on the particle will be $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}} \ \mu \mathrm{C}$ where $\mathrm{x}=$ ____________.  use $g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ ]

Two identical non-conducting solid spheres of same mass and charge are suspended in air from a common point by two non-conducting, massless strings of same length. At equilibrium, the angle between the strings is $\alpha$. The spheres are now immersed in a dielectric liquid of density $800 kg m ^{-3}$ and dielectric constant $21$ . If the angle between the strings remains the same after the immersion, then

$(A)$ electric force between the spheres remains unchanged

$(B)$ electric force between the spheres reduces

$(C)$ mass density of the spheres is $840 kg m ^{-3}$

$(D)$ the tension in the strings holding the spheres remains unchanged

A liquid drop having $6$ excess electrons is kept stationary under a uniform electric field of $25.5\, k\,Vm^{-1}$ . The density of liquid is $1.26\times10^3\, kg\, m^{-3}$ . The radius of the drop is (neglect buoyancy)
