In the following four situations,charged particles are at an equal distance from the origin. Arrange them in order of the magnitude of the net electric field at the origin,starting from the greatest.

  • A
    $(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)$
  • B
    $(ii) > (i) > (iii) > (iv)$
  • C
    $(i) > (iii) > (ii) > (iv)$
  • D
    $(iv) > (iii) > (ii) > (i)$

Two small conducting spheres of equal radius have charges of $10\ \mu C$ and $-20\ \mu C$ respectively and are placed at a distance $R$ from each other,experiencing a force $F_1$. If they are brought in contact and then separated to the same distance,the new force between them is $F_2$. Find the ratio $F_1 : F_2$.

$A$ clock dial has point charges $-q, -2q, -3q, \ldots, -12q$ at the positions of the corresponding numbers on the dial respectively. The time at which the hour hand points in the direction of the net electric field at the centre of the dial is (Assume clock hands do not influence the net electric field). (in $:30$)

Two equal negative charges are fixed at the points $(0, a)$ and $(0, -a)$ on the $y$-axis. $A$ positive charge $Q$ is released from rest at the point $(2a, 0)$ on the $x$-axis. The charge $Q$ will

Two fixed charges $+4\,Q$ and $-Q$ are located at $A$ and $B$ respectively,with the distance $AB = 3\,m$.

Two identical charged spheres suspended from a common point by two massless strings of lengths $l$ are initially at a distance $d$ $(d << l)$ apart because of their mutual repulsion. The charges begin to leak from both the spheres at a constant rate. As a result,the spheres approach each other with a velocity $v$. Then $v$ varies as a function of the distance $x$ between the spheres,as:
