$A$ tiny spherical oil drop carrying a net charge $q$ is balanced in still air with a vertical uniform electric field of strength $\frac{81 \pi}{7} \times 10^5 \text{ Vm}^{-1}$. When the field is switched off,the drop is observed to fall with a terminal velocity $2 \times 10^{-3} \text{ ms}^{-1}$. Given $g = 9.8 \text{ ms}^{-2}$,viscosity of the air $\eta = 1.8 \times 10^{-5} \text{ Ns m}^{-2}$,and the density of oil $\rho = 900 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$,the magnitude of $q$ is:

Six charges are placed at the corners of a regular hexagon as shown. If an electron is placed at its centre $O$,the force on it will be:

The following figures show regular hexagons with charges placed at their vertices. In which of the following cases is the electric field at the center zero?

Consider a gravity-free container as shown. The system is initially at rest and the electric potential in the region is $V = (y^3 + 2) \text{ J/C}$. A ball of charge $q = -0.5 \text{ C}$ and mass $m = 2 \text{ kg}$ is released from rest from the base $(y=0)$. It starts to move up due to the electric field and collides with the shaded top face $(y=2 \text{ m})$ as shown. If its speed just after the collision is $1.5 \text{ m/s}$ and the time for which the ball is in contact with the shaded face is $0.1 \text{ s}$, find the external force required to hold the container fixed in its position during the collision, assuming the ball exerts a constant force on the wall during the entire span of the collision. (in $\text{ N}$)

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
