Four charges are placed on the corners of a square as shown in the figure,with a side length of $5 \, cm$. If $Q = 1 \, \mu C$,then the electric field intensity at the centre will be:

  • A
    $1.02 \times 10^7 \, N/C$ upwards
  • B
    $2.04 \times 10^7 \, N/C$ downwards
  • C
    $2.04 \times 10^7 \, N/C$ upwards
  • D
    $1.02 \times 10^7 \, N/C$ downwards

Two point charges of magnitudes $-8 \mu C$ and $+32 \mu C$ are separated by a distance of $15 \ cm$ in air. The position of the point from the $-8 \mu C$ charge at which the resultant electric field becomes zero is (in $cm$):

An infinite number of electric charges, each equal to $5 \text{ nC}$ (magnitude), are placed along the $X$-axis at $x = 1 \text{ cm}, x = 2 \text{ cm}, x = 4 \text{ cm}, x = 8 \text{ cm}, \dots$ and so on. In this setup, if the consecutive charges have opposite signs, then the electric field in $\text{N/C}$ at $x = 0$ is: $\left(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \text{ N} \cdot \text{m}^2/\text{C}^2\right)$
