Two identical conductors of copper and aluminium are placed in an identical electric fields. The magnitude of induced charge in the aluminium will be
Zero
Greater than in copper
Equal to that in copper
Less than in copper
The vehicles carrying inflammable fluids usually have metallic chains touching the ground:
Write important results regarding electrostatic of conductors.
As shown in the figure, a point charge $Q$ is placed at the centre of conducting spherical shell of inner radius a and outer radius $b$. The electric field due to charge $Q$ in three different regions I, II and III is given by: $( I : r < a , II : a < r < b , III : r > b )$
A solid conducting sphere of radius $a$ has a net positive charge $2Q$. A conducting spherical shell of inner radius $b$ and outer radius $c$ is concentric with the solid sphere and has a net charge $-Q$. The surface charge density on the inner and outer surfaces of the spherical shell will be
A metallic rod is placed in a uniform electric field. Select the correct option.
