Along the $X$-axis,three charges $\frac{q}{2}, -q$ and $\frac{q}{2}$ are placed at $x=0, x=a$ and $x=2a$ respectively. The resultant electric potential at $x=a+r$ (if $a << r$) is: ($\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space)

Is electrostatic potential a vector or a scalar quantity?

$A$ proton is $1840$ times heavier than an electron. When it is accelerated through a potential difference of $1 \ kV$,its kinetic energy is .......... $keV$.

Charge $1.6 \times 10^{-7} \text{ C}$ is distributed uniformly over the surface of a spherical conductor of radius $R$. The ratio of the electric potential inside the spherical conductor to the electric field on the surface is . . . . . . .

$A$ charge $+q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = x_0, x = 3x_0, x = 5x_0, \dots$ up to $\infty$ on the $X$-axis and a charge $-q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = 2x_0, x = 4x_0, x = 6x_0, \dots$ up to $\infty$. Here $x_0$ is a positive constant. Taking the potential at a point due to a charge $Q$ at a distance $r$ from it to be $\frac{Q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 r}$,find the potential at the origin due to the above system of charges.

$A$ solid conducting sphere having a charge $Q$ is surrounded by an uncharged concentric conducting hollow spherical shell. Let the potential difference between the surface of the solid sphere and that of the outer surface of the hollow shell be $V$. If the shell is now given a charge $-3Q$,the new potential difference between the same two surfaces is:
