Let the electrostatic field $E$ at distance $r$ from a point charge $q$ not be an inverse square but instead an inverse cubic, e.g. $E =k \cdot \frac{q}{r^{3}} \hat{ r }$, here $k$ is a constant.
Consider the following two statements:
$(I)$ Flux through a spherical surface enclosing the charge is $\phi=q_{\text {enclosed }} / \varepsilon_{0}$.
$(II)$ A charge placed inside uniformly charged shell will experience a force.
Which of the above statements are valid?
Only statement $I$ is valid
Only statement $II$ is valid
Both statements $I$ and $II$ are invalid
Both statements $I$ and $II$ are valid
In finding the electric field using Gauss Law the formula $|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}|=\frac{q_{\mathrm{enc}}}{\varepsilon_{0}|\mathrm{A}|}$ is applicable. In the formula $\varepsilon_{0}$ is permittivity of free space, $A$ is the area of Gaussian surface and $q_{enc}$ is charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface. The equation can be used in which of the following situation?
Draw electric field lines when two positive charges are near.
An electric field is uniform, and in the positive $x$ direction for positive $x,$ and uniform with the same magnitude but in the negative $x$ direction for negative $x$. It is given that $E =200 \hat{ i }\; N/C$ for $x\,>\,0$ and $E = - 200\hat i\;N/C$ for $x < 0 .$ A right ctrcular cyllnder of length $20 \;cm$ and radius $5\; cm$ has its centre at the origin and its axis along the $x$ -axis so that one face is at $x=+10\; cm$ and the other is at $x=-10\; cm$
$(a)$ What is the net outward flux through each flat face?
$(b)$ What is the flux through the side of the cylinder?
$(c)$ What is the net outward flux through the cylinder?
$(d)$ What is the net charge inside the cyllnder?
Find out the surface charge density at the intersection of point $x =3\, m$ plane and $x$ -axis, in the region of uniform line charge of $8\, nC / m$ lying along the $z$ -axis in free space.
Each of two large conducting parallel plates has one sided surface area $A$. If one of the plates is given a charge $Q$ whereas the other is neutral, then the electric field at a point in between the plates is given by
