A Point Charge In An Electric Field

The force experienced by a unit positive point charge when placed in an electric field is called ?

A beam of charged particle enters in a region of magnetic field of 5 × 10^(−3) weber m and electric field of 2.5 × 10 4 V m 1 ,acting perpendicularly. Calculate the speed of particles perpendicular to electric and ,magnetic field , if their path remains unchanged. The given charge on particles and mass are 3.2 × 10 − 19 C and 12 × 10 − 31 kg , respectively.calculate the radius of circular path traced by the charged particle if the electric field is removed .

Assertion : Half of the ring is uniformly positively charged and other half uniformly negatively charged. Then, electric field is zero at centre. Then , electric field is zero at centre. Reason : At the centre of uniformly charged ring, electric field is zero.
