There is an electric field $E$ in the $X$-direction. If the work done on moving a charge $0.2\,C$ through a distance of $2\,m$ along a line making an angle $60^\circ$ with the $X$-axis is $4.0\,J$,what is the value of $E$ in $N/C$?

The equation of an electric field line in the $xy$-plane is given by ${x^2} + {y^2} = 1$. What is true for a particle with unit positive charge initially at rest at the point $(1, 0)$ in the $xy$-plane?

$A$ charge $10^{-9} \ C$ is located at the origin of a coordinate system and another charge $Q$ at $(2, 0, 0) \ m$. If the $Y$-component of the electric field at $(3, 1, 1) \ m$ is zero,calculate the value of $Q$.

Two point charges $-10 \mu C$ and $+5 \mu C$ are situated on the $X$-axis at $x=0$ and $x=\sqrt{2} \ m$. The point along the $X$-axis where the electric field becomes zero is:

The point charges $+q, -q, -q, +q, +Q$ and $-q$ are placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon $ABCDEF$ as shown in the figure. The electric field at the centre of the hexagon '$O$' due to the five charges at $A, B, C, D$ and $F$ is twice the electric field at centre '$O$' due to charge $+Q$ at $E$ alone. The value of $Q$ is
