When a positively charged sphere is brought near a metallic sphere, it is observed that a force of attraction exists between the two. It means
sphere.


Important Questions on Coulomb's Law and Electric Field
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).





Two small balls and of positive charge each and masses and , respectively, are connected by a non-conducting light rod of length . This system is released in a uniform electric field of strength as shown. Just after the release (assume no other force acts on the system)

A ball at is in equilibrium as it is attached with two strings and which are tied at and . The charges at and are and respectively. Find the correct options. The ball at is positively charged.

A charged cork of mass suspended by a light string is placed in a uniform electric field of strength as shown in the figure. If in equilibrium position tension in the string is , then angle with the vertical can be
