Two charges each of magnitude $Q$ are fixed at a distance of $2a$ apart. $A$ third charge ($-q$ of mass $m$) is placed at the midpoint of the two charges. If the $-q$ charge is slightly displaced perpendicular to the line joining the charges,find its time period.

Given below are two statements:
Statement-$I$: $A$ point charge is brought into an electric field. The value of the electric field at a point near the charge may increase if the charge is positive.
Statement-$II$: An electric dipole is placed in a non-uniform electric field. The net electric force on the dipole will not be zero.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are correct?
$(A)$ If the electric field due to a point charge varies as $r^{-2.5}$ instead of $r^{-2}$,then the Gauss law will still be valid.
$(B)$ The Gauss law can be used to calculate the field distribution around an electric dipole.
$(C)$ If the electric field between two point charges is zero somewhere,then the sign of the two charges is the same.
$(D)$ The work done by the external force in moving a unit positive charge from point $A$ at potential $V_A$ to point $B$ at potential $V_B$ is $(V_B - V_A)$.

Two free point charges $+q$ and $+4q$ are a distance $R$ apart. $A$ third charge is so placed that the entire system is in equilibrium. Then the third charge is :-

The figure represents a crystal unit of cesium chloride, $CsCl$. The cesium atoms, represented by open circles, are situated at the corners of a cube of side $0.40 \, nm$, whereas a $Cl$ atom is situated at the centre of the cube. The $Cs$ atoms are deficient in one electron while the $Cl$ atom carries an excess electron.
$(i)$ What is the net electric field on the $Cl$ atom due to eight $Cs$ atoms?
$(ii)$ Suppose that the $Cs$ atom at the corner $A$ is missing. What is the net force now on the $Cl$ atom due to the seven remaining $Cs$ atoms?

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.
