Now and
Hence , so at point (1m, 0, 2m)
or 8 volt/metre along negative X-axis.
A hollow metal sphere of radius 5 cm is charged so that the potential on its surface is 10 V. The potential at the centre of the sphere is -
Since potential inside the hollow sphere is same as that on the surface.
If a unit positive charge is taken from one point to another over an equipotential surface, then -
On the equipotential surface, electric field is normal to the charged surface (where potential exists) so that no work will be done.
A conductor with a positive charge
May be at positive, zero or negative potential, it is according to the way one defines the zero potential.
Two spheres A and B of radius 4 cm and 6 cm are given charges of 80 μc and 40μc respectively. If they are connected by a fine wire, the amount of charge flowing from one to the other is -
Total charge . By using the formula .
A new charge on sphere A is .
Initially it was 80 μC i.e., (80-48)= 32 μC charge flows from A to B.
On rotating a point charge having a charge q around a charge Q in a circle of radius r. The work done will be
Since charge Q moving on equipotential surface so work done is zero.
Two charge +q and –q are situated at a certain distance. At the point exactly midway between them -
Two insulated charged conducting spheres of radii 20 cm and 15 cm respectively and having an equal charge of 10 C are connected by a copper wire and then they are separated. Then -
After redistribution, charges on them will be different, but they will acquire common potential
i.e. ⇒
As ⇒
⇒ ⇒
i.e. surface charge density on smaller sphere will be more.
Two equal charges q are placed at a distance of 2a and a third charge –2q is placed at the midpoint. The potential energy of the system is -
A particle of mass m and charge q is placed at rest in a uniform electric field E and then released. The kinetic energy attained by the particle after moving a distance y is -
Kinetic energy = Force × Displacement = qEy
