Two point charges 4Q and Q are separated by a distance of 1 m in air. At what point on the line joining the two charges is the electric field intensity zero?

Work done to move a charge along a closed path inside an electric field is always zero. Use this fact to prove that it is impossible to produce an electric field in which all the lines of force would be parallel straight lines and the density of their distribution would constantly increase in a direction perpendicular to the lines of force as shown in Figure.​

A potential barrier of 0.3 V exists across a P-N junction: If the depletion region is 3 xx10^(-7) m wide , what is the intensity of the electric field in this region?

Two identical plane metallic surfaces A and B are parallel to each other in air separated by a distance of 1 cm as shown in the fig. Surface A is given a postive potential 10 V and the outer surface of B is earthend What is the magnitude and direction of the uniform electric field between points Y and Z?
