Charges are placed on the vertices of a square as shown. Let $\vec E$ be the electric field and $V$ be the potential at the centre. If the charges on $A$ and $B$ are interchanged with those on $D$ and $C$ respectively,then

  • A
    $\vec E$ changes,$V$ remains unchanged
  • B
    $\vec E$ remains unchanged,$V$ changes
  • C
    Both $\vec E$ and $V$ change
  • D
    $\vec E$ and $V$ remain unchanged

As shown in the figure, a point charge $q_{1} = +1 \times 10^{-8} \ C$ is placed at the origin in the $x-y$ plane and another point charge $q_{2} = +3 \times 10^{-6} \ C$ is placed at the coordinate $(10, 0)$. In that case, which of the following graph$(s)$ shows most correctly the electric field vector $E_{x}$ in the $x$-direction?

Two identical balls having like charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ are placed at a certain distance $r$ apart and repel each other with a force $F_1$. They are brought into contact and then moved apart to a distance equal to half their initial separation $(r/2)$. The force of repulsion between them increases $4.5$ times in comparison with the initial value. The ratio of the initial charges of the balls is
