The surface of a planet is found to be uniformly charged. When a particle of mass $m$ and no charge is thrown at an angle from the surface of the planet,it has a parabolic trajectory as in projectile motion with horizontal range $L$. $A$ particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$,with the same initial conditions,has a range $L/2$. The range of a particle of mass $m$ and charge $2q$,with the same initial conditions,is:

  • A
    $L$
  • B
    $L/2$
  • C
    $L/3$
  • D
    $L/4$

$A$ toy car with charge $q$ moves on a frictionless horizontal plane surface under the influence of a uniform electric field $\vec E$. Due to the force $q\vec E$,its velocity increases from $0$ to $6\, m s^{-1}$ in one second. At that instant,the direction of the field is reversed. The car continues to move for two more seconds under the influence of this field. The average velocity and the average speed of the toy car between $0$ to $3$ seconds are respectively:

Two spherical conductors $B$ and $C$ having equal radii and carrying equal charges repel each other with a force $F$ when kept apart at some distance. $A$ third spherical conductor $A$ having the same radius as that of $B$ but uncharged,is brought in contact with $B$,then brought in contact with $C$,and finally removed away from both. The new force of repulsion between $B$ and $C$ is-

Two particles each of mass $m$ and charge $q$ are separated by distance $r_1$ and the system is left free to move at $t = 0$. At time $t$,both the particles are found to be separated by distance $r_2$. The speed of each particle is

Two identical charged spheres are suspended by strings of equal lengths. The strings make an angle of $30^o$ with each other. When suspended in a liquid of density $1 \, g \, cm^{-3}$,the angle remains the same. If the density of the material of the sphere is $4/3 \, g \, cm^{-3}$,the dielectric constant of the liquid is:

The repulsive force between two point charges is $F$ when they are separated by a distance of $1 \, m$. Now,these point charges are replaced by spheres of radius $25 \, cm$ having the same charges. The distance between their centers is $1 \, m$. The repulsive force in the two cases will decrease according to:
