  • A
    $E=0$ but $V \neq 0$
  • B
    $E \neq 0$ but $V=0$
  • C
    $E=0$ and $V=0$
  • D
    $E \neq 0$ and $V \neq 0$

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 $(V_B - V_A)$.

Which of the following is true for the figure showing electric lines of force? ($E$ is electrical field,$V$ is potential)

Two identical charged particles,each having a mass $10 \, g$ and charge $2.0 \times 10^{-7} \, C$,are placed on a horizontal table with a separation of $L$ between them such that they stay in limiting equilibrium. If the coefficient of friction between each particle and the table is $0.25$,find the value of $L$ in $cm$. [Use $g = 10 \, m/s^2$]

$A$ positively charged thin metal ring of radius $R$ is fixed in the $xy$-plane with its centre at the origin $O$. $A$ negatively charged particle $P$ is released from rest at the point $(0, 0, z_0)$,where $z_0 > 0$. Then the motion of $P$ is:
