Three metal spheres A,B and C are mounted on insulating stands. The spheres are touching one another, as shown in the diagram A strong positively charged object it brought near sphere A and a strong negative charge is brought near sphere C. While the charged objects remains near spheres A anc C, sphere B is removed by means of its insulating stand. After the charged objects are removed, sphere B is first touched to sphere A and then to sphere C. The resulting charge on B would be-

A conducting sphere S_1 of radius r is attached to an insulating handle. Another conduction sphere S_2 of radius R is mounted on an insulating stand. S_2 is initially uncharged. S_1 is given a charge Q brought into contact with S_2 and removed. S_1 is recharge such that the charge on it is again Q and it is again brought into contact with S_2 and removed. This procedure is repeated n times. a. Find the electrostatic energy of S_2 after n such contacts with S_1 . b. What is the limiting value of this energy as nrarroo ?

A conductor in the shape of a cylindrical shell of outer and inner radii 2r and r is connected to an ideal battery as shown. The length of the conductor is m. The charge carrier density in the conductor is n times 8 times 10^28 3^-3 The value of r=1/6 cm If the current through the battery is 4A, the drift velocity of electrons at a distance 1.5r from the axis of the conductor is ___________ times 10^-6 m//s .

There are two uncharged identicasl metallic spheres 1 and 2 of radius r separated by a distance d(dgtgtr) . A charged metalllic sphere of same radius having charge q is touched with one of the sphere. After some time it is moved away fom the system. Now, the uncharged sphere is earthed. Charge on earthed sphere is

A stream of electrons with kinetic energy equal to 100 keV pass across a cross setion of a conductor in 0.5 s . If the potential difference between the ends of conductor is 5 V find the number of electrons that pass across the conductor in one second. (The charge on an electron is 1.6 xx 10^(-19)C ).

A long conducting wire is placed along Y-axis and a current of 5 A is flowing through it in positive Y-axis. A charged particle of charge + 3.2 xx 10^(-19) C is moving parallel to the conductor towards negative Y-axis with a speed of 5 xx 10^(4) m s^(-1) . Calculate the force exerted by the magnetic field of current on charged particle. The perpendicular distance between charged particle and wire is 25 cm.

Two identical conducting spheres 1 and 2 carry equal amounts of charge and are ficed apart at a certain distance larger than their diameters. The spheres repel each other with an electrical force of 88mN. A thired identical sphere 3, having an insulating handle and initially uncharged, is touched first to sphere 1 and then to sphere 2 and finally removed. Find the force between spheres 1 and 2 as shown if Figure. ,

Two insulated spherical conductors of capacities 1muF and 2muF are charged to 100 V and 200 V respectively. The conductors are then brought in contact. The charges on the sphere after contact are

Figure shows that a positively charged rod is brought near two ucharged metal spheres A and B clamped on insulated stands and palced in contact with each other. (i) What would happen if the rod is removed before the spheres are separated? (ii) Would the induced charges be equal in magnitude even if the spheres had different sizes or different conductors? (iii) What will happen if the spheres are separated first and then the rod is rmoved far away?
