Question 1
Four charges are arranged at the corners of a square ABCD , as shown in the adjoining figure. The force on the charge kept at the centre O is
Zero
Along the diagonal AC
Along the diagonal BD
Perpendicular to side AB
SOLUTION
Solution : C
We put a unit positive charge at O. Resultant force due to the charge placed at A and C is zero and resultant charge due to B and D is towards D along the diagonal BD.
Question 2
When air is replaced by a dielectric medium of constant k , the maximum force of attraction between two charges separated by a distance
Decreases k times
Remains unchanged
Increases k times
Increases k-1 times
SOLUTION
Solution : A
F′=14πϵ0q1q2r2=FK
If F is the force in air, then F is less than F since K>1.
Question 3
Two similar spheres having +q and -q charge are kept at a certain distance. F force acts between the two. If in the middle of two spheres, another similar sphere having +q charge is kept, then it experiences a force whose magnitude and direction are
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Initially, force betwen A and C F=KQ2r2
When a similar sphere B having charge +Q is kept at the mid point of line joining A and
C, then Net force on B is
Fnet=FA+FC=KQ2(r2)+KQ2(r2)2=8KQ2r2=8F.
(Direction is shown in figure)
Question 4
The electric field due to a charge at a distance of 3 m from it is 500 N/coulomb. The magnitude of the charge is [14πϵ0=9×109 N−m2coulomb2]
2.5 micro-coulomb
2.0 micro-coulomb
1.0 micro-coulomb
0.5 micro-coulomb
SOLUTION
Solution : D
E=9×109×Qr2⇒500=9×109×Q(3)2⇒Q=0.5μC
Question 5
When a glass rod is rubbed with silk, it
SOLUTION
Solution : B
On rubbing glass rod with silk, excess electron transferred from glass to silk. So glass rod becomes positive and silk becomes negative.
Question 6
There is a uniform electric field of strength 103 V/m along y-axis. A body of mass 1g and charge 10−6C is projected into the field from origin along the positive x-axis with a velocity 10m/s. Its speed in m/s after 10s is (Neglect gravitation)
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Body moves along the parabolic path.
For vertical motion : By using v=u+at
⇒ vy=0+QEm.t=10−6×10310−3×10=10m/sec
For horizontal motion - it;s horizontal velocity remains the same i.e after the same i.e after 10 sec, horizontal
velocity of body vx=10 m/sec.
Velocity aftey 10 sec v=√V2x+V2y=10√2m/sec
Question 7
Six charges, three positive and three negative of equal magnitude are to be placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon such that the electric field at O is double the electric field when only one positive charge of same magnitude is placed at R. Which of the following arrangements of charges is possible for P, Q, R, S, T and U respectively
SOLUTION
Solution : D
If the charges are arranged according to the option (d), the electric fields due to P and S and due to Q and T add to zero, while due to U and R will be added up.
Question 8
An electron enters with its velocity in the direction of the uniform electric lines of force. Consider lines of force to be straight. Then
SOLUTION
Solution : C
As electric field applies the force on electron in the direction opposite to it’s motion, the velocity of the electron will decrease.
Question 9
Assertion: The coulomb force is the dominating force in the universe.
Reason :The coulomb force is weaker than the gravitational force.
SOLUTION
Solution : D
Gravitational force is the dominating force in nature and not coulomb's force. Gravitational force is the weakest force. Also, Coulomb's force>> gravitational force.
Question 10
The distance between charges 5×10−11C and −2.7×10−11C is 0.2m. The distance at which a third charge should be placed in order that it will not experience any force along the line joining the two charges is
SOLUTION
Solution : C
If two opposite charges are separated by a certain distance, then for it's equalibrium a third
charge should be kept outside and near the charge which is smaller in magnitude.
Here, suppose third charge q is placed at a distance x from −2.7×10−11C then for it's
equalibrium |F1|=|F2|
⇒ KQ1q(x+0.2)2=KQ2qx2⇒ x=0.556 m
(Here K=14πϵ0 and Q1=5×10−11C, Q2=−2.7×10−11C)
Question 11
Three charges 4q, Q and q are in a straight line in the position of 0,l2 and l respectively. The resultant force on q will be zero, if Q =
SOLUTION
Solution : A
The force between 4q and q; F1=14πϵ0.4q×ql2
The force between Q and q; F2=14πϵ0.Q×q(l2)2
We want F1+F2=0 or 4q2l2=−4Qql2⇒Q=−q
Question 12
A conductor has 14.4×10−19 coulombs positive charge. The conductor has (Charge on electron 1.6×10−19coulombs )
SOLUTION
Solution : D
Positive charge shows the deficiency of electrons. number of electrons =14.4×10−191.6×10−19=9
Question 13
An electric dipole is placed along the x - axis at the origin O . A point P is at a distance of 20cm from this origin such that OP makes an angle π3 with the x-axis. If the electric field at P makes an angle θ with the x-axis, the value of θ would be
SOLUTION
Solution : B
θ=π3+α where tanα=12tanπ3⇒α=tan−1√32 So, θ=π3+tan−1 √32
Question 14
Two electric dipoles of moment P and 64 P are placed in opposite direction on a line at a distance of 25 cm. The electric field will be zero at point between the dipoles whose distance from the dipole of moment P is
5 cm
259cm
10 cm
413cm
SOLUTION
Solution : A
Suppose neutral point N lies at a distance x from dipole of moment ρ or at a distance X2 from
dipole of 64 ρ.
⇒14πϵ02px3=14πϵ0.2(64P)(25−x)3
⇒ 1x3=64(25−x)3⇒ x=5cm.
Question 15
An electric dipole is kept in non-uniform electric field. It experiences
SOLUTION
Solution : A
As the dipole will feel two forces which are although opposite but not equal.
Therefore, A net force will be there and as these forces act at different points of a body. A torque is also there.
