The electric field is constant in both magnitude and direction. Consider a path of length d at an angle with respect to field lines as shown in figure. The potential difference between points and is:-




Important Questions on Electrostatics

Which statement is true?
(i) A ring of radius carries a uniformly distributed charge . A point charge is placed on the axis of the ring at a distance from its centre and released. The particle executes simple harmonic motion along the axis of the ring.
(ii) Electrons move from a region of higher potential to that of lower potential



The variation of potential with distance x from a fixed point is shown in figure. The electric field at

List gives certain situations in which electric field is represented by electric lines of forces in plane. List gives corresponding representation of equipotential lines in plane. Match the figures in List with the figures in List and indicate your answer.

In the electric field of charge , another charge is carried from to , to to and to , then work done will be:
