When one electron is taken towards the other electron, then the electric potential energy of the system
Decreases
Increases
Remains unchanged
Becomes zero
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
Hydrogen ion and singly ionized helium atom are accelerated, from rest, through the same potential difference. The ratio of final speeds of hydrogen and helium ions is close to......
The work done in moving an electric charge $q$ in an electric field does not depend upon
A point chargr $Q$ is fixed A small charge $q$ and mass $m$ is given a velocity $v_0$ from infinity & perpendicular distance $r_0$ as shown. If distance of closest approach is $r_0/2$. The value of $q$ is [Given $mv_0^2 = \frac{{{Q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}\,{r_0}}}$]
Figure shows a solid metal sphere of radius $‘a’$ surrounded by a concentric thin metal shell of radius $2a$ . Initially both are having charges $Q$ each. When the two are connected by a conducting wire as shown in the figure, then amount of heat produced in this process will be
