Consider a coin, It is electrically neutral and contains equal amounts of positive and negative charge of magnitude `34.8 kC`. Suppose that these equal charages were concentrated two point charges separated by
100 m(-length of a long building),find the force on each such point charge in this case. What do you conclude from these results?

Consider a coin. It is electrically neutral and contains equal amounts of positive and negative charge of magnitude 34.8 kC . Suppose that these equal charages were concentrated two point charges separated by 10^6 , (radius of the earth). find the force on each such point charge. What do you conclude from these results?

A paisa coin is made up of Al-Mg alloy and weights 0.75g. It has a square shape and its diagonal measures 17 mm. it is electrically neutral and contains equal amounts of positive and negative charges. Treating the paisa coins made up of only Al, find the magnitude of equal number of positively and negatively charages. what conclusion do you draw from this magnitude?

Consider an over all neutral sphere of radius R. This sphere has a point charge +Q at its centre and this positive charge is surrounded by a uniform density rho of negative charge upto a radius R. Use Gauss' law to obtain expressions for the electric field of this at a point distant r form its centre. where r < R. show that these two expressions give identical results for the elctric field at r = R.

Two fixed, equal, positive charges, each of magnitude 5xx10^-5 coul are located at points A and B separated by a distance of 6m. An equal and opposite charge moves towards them along the line COD, the perpendicular bisector of the line AB. The moving charge, when it reaches the point C at a distance of 4m from O, has a kinetic energy of 4 joules. Calculate the distance of the farthest point D which the negative charge will reach before returning towards C.
