=3×9×109×100×10−12×10010=27 J
Question 2
There is an electric field E along X-direction. If the work done on moving a charge 0.2 C through a distance of 2m along a line making an angle 60∘ with the X-axis is 4.0, what is the value of E
SOLUTION

W=qV=qE.d
⇒4=0.2×E×(2 cos 60∘)
=0.2E×(2×0.5)
∴E=40.2=20 NC−1
Question 3
Four equal charges Q are placed at the four corners of a square of each side 'd'. Work done in removing a charge – Q from its centre to infinity is
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Potential at centre O of the square
V0=4(Q4πϵ0(a/√2))
Work done in shifting (– Q) charge from centre to infinity
W=−Q(V∞−V0)=QV0=4√2Q24πϵ0a=√2Q2πϵ0a
Question 4
Four identical charges +50 μC each are placed, one at each corner of a square of side 2m. How much external energy is required to bring another charge of +50 μC from infinity to the centre of the square (Given 14πϵ0=9×109 Nm2C2)
SOLUTION
Solution : A
Potential at the centre of square
V=4×(9×109×50×10−6√2)=90√2×104 V
Work done in bringing a charge (q = 50 μC) from ∞ to centre (O) of the square is
W=q(V0−V∞)=qV0
⇒W=50×10−6×90√2×104=64 J
Question 5
Two insulated charged conducting spheres of radii 20 cm and 15 cm respectively and having an equal charge of 10 C are connected by a copper wire and then they are separated. Then
SOLUTION
Solution : C
After redistribution, charges on them will be different, but they will acquire common potential
i.e. kQ1r1=kQ2r2⇒Q1Q2=r1r2
As σ=Q4πr2⇒σ1σ2=Q1Q2×r22r21⇒σ∝1r
i.e. surface charge density on smaller sphere will be more.
