Two metal pieces having a potential difference of $800 \;V$ are $0.02\; m$ apart horizontally. A particle of mass $1.96 \times 10^{-15} \;kg$ is suspended in equilibrium between the plates. If $e$ is the elementary charge, then charge on the particle is
$e$
$3e$
$6e$
$8e$
The variation of potential with distance $R$ from a fixed point is as shown below. The electric field at $R = 5\,m$ is......$volt/m$
Two large circular discs separated by a distance of $0.01 m$ are connected to a battery via a switch as shown in the figure. Charged oil drops of density $900 kg m ^{-3}$ are released through a tiny hole at the center of the top disc. Once some oil drops achieve terminal velocity, the switch is closed to apply a voltage of $200 V$ across the discs. As a result, an oil drop of radius $8 \times 10^{-7} m$ stops moving vertically and floats between the discs. The number of electrons present in this oil drop is (neglect the buoyancy force, take acceleration due to gravity $=10 ms ^{-2}$ and charge on an electron ($e$) $=1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$ )
Determine the electric field strength vector if the potential of this field depends on $x, y$ coordinates as $V=10$ axy
The potential due to an electrostatic charge distribution is $V(r)=\frac{q e^{-\alpha e r}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} r}$, where $\alpha$ is positive. The net charge within a sphere centred at the origin and of radius $1/ \alpha$ is
A cathode ray tube contains a pair of parallel metal plates $1.0\, cm$ apart and $3.0\, cm$ long. A narrow horizontal beam of electron with a velocity $3 \times 10^7\, m/s$ passed down the tube midway between the plates. When a potential difference of $550\, V$ is maintained across the plates, it is found that the electron beam is so deflected that it just strikes the end of one of the plates. Then the specific charge of the electron in $C/kg$ is
