Assertion: $A$ positive charge particle is placed in front of a spherical uncharged conductor. The number of lines of force terminating on the sphere will be more than those emerging from it.
Reason: The surface charge density at a point on the sphere nearest to the point charge will be negative and maximum in magnitude compared to other points on the sphere.

$A$ solid conducting sphere has a cavity,as shown in the figure. $A$ charge $+q_1$ is situated away from the center. $A$ charge $+q_2$ is situated outside the sphere. Then the true statement is:

$A$ spherical conducting shell of inner radius $r_1$ and outer radius $r_2$ has a charge $Q$.
$(a)$ $A$ charge $q$ is placed at the centre of the shell. What is the surface charge density on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell?
$(b)$ Is the electric field inside a cavity (with no charge) zero,even if the shell is not spherical,but has any irregular shape? Explain.

Two spherical conductors $A$ and $B$ of radii $1 \ mm$ and $2 \ mm$ are separated by a distance of $5 \ cm$ and are uniformly charged. If the spheres are connected by a conducting wire,then in the equilibrium condition,the ratio of the magnitude of the electric fields at the surfaces of spheres $A$ and $B$ is:

Consider a metal sphere of radius $R$ that is cut into two parts along a plane whose minimum distance from the sphere's centre is $h$. The sphere is uniformly charged with a total electric charge $Q$. The minimum force necessary to hold the two parts of the sphere together is:
