The distance between charges $5 \times {10^{ - 11}}\,C$ and $ - 2.7 \times {10^{ - 11}}\,C$ is $0.2\, m$. The distance at which a third charge should be placed in order that it will not experience any force along the line joining the two charges is......$m$
$0.44$
$0.65$
$0.556$
$0.350$
A charged particle having some mass is resting in equilibrium at a height $H$ above the centre of a uniformly charged non-conducting horizontal ring of radius $R$. The force of gravity acts downwards. The equilibrium of the particle will be stable $R$
Two identical conducting spheres with negligible volume have $2.1\, nC$ and $-0.1\, nC$ charges, respectively. They are brought into contact and then separated by a distance of $0.5 \,m$. The electrostatic force acting between the spheres is $.......... \, \times 10^{-9} \,N$

Four charge $Q _1, Q _2, Q _3$, and $Q _4$, of same magnitude are fixed along the $x$ axis at $x =-2 a - a ,+ a$ and $+2 a$, respectively. A positive charge $q$ is placed on the positive $y$ axis at a distance $b > 0$. Four options of the signs of these charges are given in List-$I$ . The direction of the forces on the charge q is given in List-$II$ Match List-$1$ with List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists.$Image$

How did Coulomb find the law of value of electric force between two point charges ?
Suppose the charge of a proton and an electron differ slightly. One of them is $-e,$ the other is $(e + \Delta e).$ If the net of electrostatic force and gravitational force between two hydrogen atoms placed at a distanced (much greater than atomic size) apart is zero, then $\Delta e$ is of the order of $[$ Given: mass of hydrogen $m_h = 1.67 \times 10^{- 27}\,\, kg]$
