Imagine a short dipole at the centre of a spherical surface. If the magnitude of the electric field at a certain point on the surface of the sphere is Then which of the following cannot be the magnitude of the electric field anywhere on the surface of the sphere?


Important Questions on Coulomb's Law and Electric Field
In arrangement shown in figure, two positive charges, each are fixed. Mark the correct statement (s) regarding a third charged particle placed at the midpoint that can be displaced along or perpendicular to the line connecting the charges.

We have two electric dipoles. Each dipole consists of two equal and opposite point charges at the ends of an insulating rod of length The dipoles sit along the -axis a distance apart, oriented as shown in the figure.
Their separation The dipole on the left:

In a uniformly charged dielectric sphere, a very thin tunnel has been made along the diameter as shown in figure. A charge particle having mass is released from rest at one end of the tunnel. For the situation described, mark the correct statement(s). (Neglect gravity.)



Consider two identical charges placed distance apart, along the -axis (see figure). The equilibrium of a positive test charge placed at point midway between them is,

For the situation shown in the figure (assume the length of the dipole) mark out the correct statement(s).
