Two point charges $ + 9e$ and $ + e$ are at $16\, cm$ away from each other. Where should another charge $q$ be placed between them so that the system remains in equilibrium
$24\, cm$ from $ + 9e$
$12\, cm$ from $ + 9e$
$24\, cm$ from $ + e$
$12\, cm$ from $ + e$
Four charges are arranged at the corners of a square $ABCD$, as shown. The force on a $+ve$ charge kept at the centre of the square is
If $g_E$ and $g_M$ are the accelerations due to gravity on the surfaces of the earth and the moon respectively and if Millikan's oil drop experiment could be performed on the two surfaces, one will find the ratio (electronic charge on the moon/electronic charge on the earth) to be
Why is an electric force conservative ?
Two identical metallic spheres $A$ and $B$ when placed at certain distance in air repel each other with a force of $F$. Another identical uncharged sphere $C$ is first placed in contact with $A$ and then in contact with $B$ and finally placed at midpoint between spheres $A$ and $B$. The force experienced by sphere $C$ will be.
A simple pendulum of period $T$ has a metal bob which is negatively charged. If it is allowed to oscillate above a positively charged metal plate, its period will
