Two small balls $A$ and $B$ of positive charge $Q$ each and masses $m$ and $2m$, respectively, are connected by a non-conducting light rod of length $L$. This system is released in a uniform electric field of strength $E$ as shown. Just after the release (assume no other force acts on the system)

A ball at $O$ is in equilibrium as it is attached with two strings $AO$ and $DO,$ which are tied at $A$ and $D.$ $AO=DO=a\sqrt{5}$. The charges at $A,B,C$ and $D$ are $+q, +Q, +2Q$ and $-q,$ respectively. Find the correct options. The ball at $O$ is positively charged.

A charged cork of mass $m$ suspended by a light string is placed in a uniform electric field of strength $\overrightarrow{E}=\left(\widehat{\mathrm{i}}+\widehat{\mathrm{j}}\right)\times {10}^5 \mathrm{N} {\mathrm{C}}^{-1}$ as shown in the figure. If in equilibrium position tension in the string is $\frac{2mg}{\left(1+\sqrt{3}\right)}$, then angle $\alpha$ with the vertical can be

The following figure shows a block of mass $m$ suspended from a fixed point by means of a vertical spring. The block is oscillating simple harmonically and carries a charge $q.$ There also exists a uniform electric field in the region. Consider four different cases. The electric field is zero in case $1$, $\frac{mg}{q}$ downward in case $2$, $\frac{mg}{q}$ upward in case $3$, and $\frac{2mg}{q}$ downward in case $4$. The speed at the mean position is the same in all cases. Select the correct alternative(s).

Three charged particles are in equilibrium under their electrostatic forces only.

A simple pendulum of mass $m$ charged negatively to $q$ coulomb oscillates with a time period $T$ in a downward electric field $E$ such that $mg>qE.$ If the electric field is withdrawn, the new time period

Two objects $A$ and $B$ are charged. Let $q_A=$ charge on $A$ and $q_B=$ charge on $B$, then match column I and column II.

Let $A$ and $B$ are two identical objects of same mass initially are charged electrostatically by rubbing against each other. Let $A$ has got a positive charge and $B$ has got a negative charge, then match column I and column II.
