A point charge $q$ is placed in a cavity in a metal block. If a charge $Q$ is brought outside the metal, then the electric force experienced by $q$ is
proportional to $Q$
proportional to $(Q-q)$
zero
cannot be determined
Write important results regarding electrostatic of conductors.
Conduction electrons are almost uniformly distributed within a conducting plate. When placed in an electrostatic field $\overrightarrow E $, the electric field within the plate
Sixty four conducting drops each of radius $0.02 m$ and each carrying a charge of $5 \,\mu C$ are combined to form a bigger drop. The ratio of surface density of bigger drop to the smaller drop will be ............
Three concentric metallic spherical shells of radii $R, 2R, 3R$, are given charges $Q_1, Q_2, Q_3$, respectively. It is found that the surface charge densities on the outer surfaces of the shells are equal. Then, the ratio of the charges given to the shells, $Q_1 : Q_2 : Q_3$ is
“Electric field inside hollow region of conductor in uniform electric field is same”. Explain.
