Consider two identical point charges located at points (0, 0) and (a, 0).
Is there a point on the line joining them at which the electric potential is zero?

उत्तर
Potential can never be zero, not ever. Given that it is a scalar amount and added everywhere. It is therefore never zero.

What is the amount of work done in moving a point charge Q around a circular arc of radius ‘r’ at the centre of which another point charge ‘q’ is located?
A solid sphere of radius R has a charge Q distributed in its volume with a charge density ρ = kra, where k and a are constants and r is the distance from its centre. If the electric field at r = `"R"/2` is `1/8` times that at r = R, the value of a is ______.
An electron falls from rest through a vertical distance h in a uniform and vertically upward directed electric field E. The direction of electric field is now reversed, keeping its magnitude the same. A proton is allowed to fall from rest in it through the same vertical distance h. The time of fall of the electron, in comparison to the time of fall of the proton is ______.
Assertion: On moving a distance two times the initial distance away from an infinitely long straight uniformly charged wire the electric field reduces to one-third of the initial value.
Reason: The electric field is inversely proportional to the distance from an infinitely long straight uniformly charged wire.
Let there be a spherically symmetric charge distribution with charge density varying as `rho("r") = rho_0(5/4 - "r"/"R")` upto r = R, and `rho("r") = 0` for r > R, where r is the distance from the origin. The electric field at a distance r(r < R) from the origin is given by _________.
Two equal point charges of the same sign are fixed on the y-axis, on either side of the origin equidistant from it, with the distance between them d. A third charge moves along the x-axis. The distance of the third charge from either of the two fixed charges when force on the third charge is maximum will be ______ cm.
