The unit of intensity of electric field is
$Newton/Coulomb$
$Joule/Coulomb$
$Volt - metre$
$Newton/metre$

A charged particle of mass $5 \times {10^{ - 5}}\,kg$ is held stationary in space by placing it in an electric field of strength ${10^7}\,N{C^{ - 1}}$ directed vertically downwards. The charge on the particle is
Two point charges $Q$ and $-3Q$ are placed at some distance apart. If the electric field at the location of $Q$ is $E$ then at the locality of $ - 3Q$, it is
Two identical point charges are placed at a separation of $d$. $P$ is a point on the line joining the charges, at a distance $x$ from any one charge. The field at $P$ is $E$, $E$ is plotted against $x$ for values of $x$ from close to zero to slightly less than $d$. Which of the following represents the resulting curve
A charged particle is suspended in equilibrium in a uniform vertical electric field of intensity $20000\, V/m$. If mass of the particle is $9.6 \times {10^{ - 16}}\,kg$, the charge on it and excess number of electrons on the particle are respectively $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$
