A wooden block performs SHM on a frictionless surface with frequency, . The block carries a charge on its surface. If now a uniform electric field is switched-on as shown, then the SHM of the block will be




Important Questions on Electrostatics


Six point charges are kept at the vertices of a regular hexagon of side and centre , as shown in the figure. Given that , which of the following statement (s) is (are) correct?


Two non-conducting spheres of radii and and carrying uniform volume charge densities and , respectively, are placed such that they partially overlap, as shown in the figure. At all points in the overlapping region

Charges and are uniformly distributed in three dielectric solid spheres and of radii and respectively, as shown in the figure. If magnitudes of the electric fields at point P at a distance R from the centre of spheres and are and respectively, then


Four charge and of same magnitude are fixed along the axis at and respectively. A positive charge is placed on the positive axis at a distance . Four options of the signs of these charges are given in List-. The direction of the forces on the charge is given in List-.
