The charges on two spheres are $+7\,\mu C$ and $-5\,\mu C$ respectively. They experience a force $F$. If each of them is given an additional charge of $-2\,\mu C$,the new force of attraction will be

  • A
    $F$
  • B
    $F / 2$
  • C
    $F / \sqrt{3}$
  • D
    $2F$

The force between two point charges $A$ and $B$ is $F$. If $75\%$ of the charge of $A$ is transferred to $B$,then the new force between $A$ and $B$ is:

Two small spheres,each having an equal positive charge $Q$ (Coulomb),are suspended by two insulating strings of equal length $L$ (metre) from a rigid hook. The whole setup is taken into a satellite where there is no gravity. The two balls are now held by electrostatic forces in a horizontal position. The tension in each string is then:

Two identical conducting spheres with negligible volume have $2.1 \, nC$ and $-0.1 \, nC$ charges,respectively. They are brought into contact and then separated by a distance of $0.5 \, m$. The electrostatic force acting between the spheres is $.......... \times 10^{-9} \, N$. [Given: $\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} = 9 \times 10^{9} \, N \cdot m^{2}/C^{2}$]

Assume that you have $10^{23}$ carbon atoms. All the nuclei are placed at the North Pole of the Earth and all the electrons are placed at the South Pole of the Earth. (Radius of Earth = $6400 \ km$). The force between the charges is approximately:

Two identical charged spheres are suspended by strings of equal length. The strings make an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with each other. When they are immersed in a liquid of density $0.8 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,the angle remains the same. If the density of the material of the spheres is $1.6 \, g \cdot cm^{-3}$,find the dielectric constant of the liquid.
