The variation of potential with distance r from a fixed point is shown in Figure, the electric force acting on a point charge of placed at the origin will be :




Important Questions on Electrostatics
Figure shows two large cylindrical shells having uniform linear charge densities and . Radius of inner cylinder is and that of outer cylinder is A charged particle of mass charge revolves in a circle of radius Then, its speed is : (Neglect gravity and assumes the radii of both the cylinders to be very small in comparison to their length.)


A point charge is brought from infinity (slowly so that heat developed in the shell is negligible) and is placed at the centre of a conducting neutral spherical shell of inner radius and outer radius then work done by the external agent is:

The magnitude of electric force on Charge placed at the centre Of two equilateral triangles each of side , as shown in figure is If charge are Respectively, then Is:



Three charges and are placed at the vertices of a right-angled isosceles triangle as shown. The net electrostatic energy of the configuration is zero if is equal to
