The fig. shows lines of constant potential in a region in which an electric field is present. The value of the potential are written in brackets of the points and the magnitude of the electric field is greatest at the point -




Important Questions on Electrostatics


The figure shows a thick metallic sphere. If it is given a charge then an electric field will be present in the region

An uncharged sphere of metal is placed in a uniform electric field produced by two large conducting parallel plates having equal and opposite charges, then lines of force look like


Figure shows a closed surface which intersects a conducting sphere. If a positive charge is placed at the point the flux of the electric field through the closed surface

A charge is placed at the centre of a conducting spherical shell of radius which is given a charge An external charge is also present at distance from .
[ where is the distance of the point from ]
