Two particles ${A}$ and ${B}$ having charges $20\, \mu {C}$ and $-5\, \mu {C}$ respectively are held fixed with a separation of $5\, {cm}$. At what position a third charged particle should be placed so that it does not experience a net electric force?
At $5\, {cm}$ from $20\, \mu {C}$ on the left side of system
At $5\, {cm}$ from $-5 \,\mu {C}$ on the right side
At $1.25 \,{cm}$ from $-5\, \mu {C}$ between two charges
At midpoint between two charges
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 $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$
Two charges $q$ and $3 q$ are separated by a distance ' $r$ ' in air. At a distance $x$ from charge $q$, the resultant electric field is zero. The value of $x$ is :
Two point charge $-q$ and $+q/2$ are situated at the origin and at the point $(a, 0, 0)$ respectively. The point along the $X$ - axis where the electric field vanishes is
A body of mass $M$ and charge $q$ is connected to a spring of spring constant $k$. It is oscillating along $x-$ direction about its equilibrium position, taken to be at $x = 0$, with an amplitude $A$. An electric field $E$ is applied along the $x-$ direction. Which of the following statements is correct?
Mention characteristics of electric field.
