If identical charges $(-q)$ are placed at each corner of a cube of side '$b$',what will be the $E.P.E$ (Electrostatic Potential Energy) of a charge $(+q)$ placed at the center of the cube?

  • A
    $\frac{-4\sqrt{2}q^2}{\pi \epsilon_0 b}$
  • B
    $\frac{-8\sqrt{2}q^2}{\pi \epsilon_0 b}$
  • C
    $\frac{-4q^2}{\sqrt{3}\pi \epsilon_0 b}$
  • D
    $\frac{8\sqrt{2}q^2}{4\pi \epsilon_0 b}$

A charge $+q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = x_0, x = 3x_0, x = 5x_0, \dots, \infty$ on the $x$-axis, and a charge $-q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = 2x_0, x = 4x_0, x = 6x_0, \dots, \infty$. Here $x_0$ is a positive constant. Take the electric potential at a point due to a charge $Q$ at a distance $r$ from it to be $Q/(4\pi\varepsilon_0 r)$. Then, the potential at the origin due to the above system of charges is:

Three concentric metallic shells $A, B$ and $C$ of radii $a, b$ and $c$ $(a < b < c)$ have surface charge densities $+\sigma, -\sigma$ and $+\sigma$ respectively. The potential of shell $B$ is
