Two charges $-q$ and $+q$ are located at points $(0,0,-a)$ and $(0,0, a)$ respectively.

$(a)$ What is the electrostatic potential at the points $(0,0, z)$ and $(x, y, 0) ?$

$(b)$ Obtain the dependence of potential on the distance $r$ of a point from the origin when $r / a\,>\,>\,1$

$(c)$ How much work is done in moving a small test charge from the point $(5,0,0)$ to $(-7,0,0)$ along the $x$ -axis? Does the answer change if the path of the test charge between the same points is not along the $x$ -axis?

An electron with an initial speed of $4.0 \times 10^6 \,ms ^{-1}$ is brought to rest by an electric field. The mass and charge of an electron are $9 \times 10^{-31} \,kg$ and $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \,C$, respectively. Identify the correct statement.

A uniformly charged thin spherical shell of radius $\mathrm{R}$ carries uniform surface charge density of $\sigma$ per unit area. It is made of two hemispherical shells, held together by pressing them with force $\mathrm{F}$ (see figure). $\mathrm{F}$ is proportional to

In moving from $A$ to $B$ along an electric field line, the electric field does $6.4 \times {10^{ – 19}}\,J$ of work on an electron. If ${\phi _1},\;{\phi _2}$ are equipotential surfaces, then the potential difference $({V_C} – {V_A})$ is…..$V$
