Important Questions on Electric Charges and Fields














A charged particle (mass and charge ) moves along axis with velocity . When it passes through the origin it enters a region having uniform electric field which extends upto . Equation of path of electron in the region is:

Three charged particles and with charges and are present on the circumference of a circle of radius The charged particles and centre of the circle formed an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure. The electric field at the point is

Charges and are at points and of a right-angled triangle . The resultant electric field at point is perpendicular to the hypotenuse, then is proportional to:

Point charges and are located at the vertices of a square with diagonals as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the electric field strength at a point, located symmetrically with respect to the vertices of the square at a distance from its center is



A thin disc of radius has a concentric hole of radius in it (see figure). It carries uniform surface charge on it. If the electric field on its axis at a height from its centre is given as then the value of is
