Q1. Why is electrostatic field normal at all the points on the surface of charged conductor?
Q2. A charged particle is placed at a distance r from each other. The magnitude of the force between
two charged particles is F .What will be the effect on F on placing the given charged particles in
water. (Take dielectric constant of water=80).
Q3. An electric dipole having dipole moment 2x10-6Cm is enclosed by a closed surface. Determine
the net electric flux coming out of the given closed surface.
Q4.If a point charge is placed at the corner of a cube then what electric flux will be the associated
with cube?
Q5.Can a charge lies on Gaussian surface?
Q6.Why do the electrostatic field lines not form close loop?
Q7.A force F is acting between two point charges q1 and q2. If a third charges q3 is placed quite close
to q2, what happen to the force between q1 and q2.
Q8.In coulombs law F=kq1q2/r2, what are the factors on which the proportionality constant k
depends?
Q9.Two point charges q1 and q2 are placed at a distance d apart as shown in the figure .The electric
field intensity is zero at a point P on the line joining them as shown. Write two conclusions that you
can draw from this.
q1 q2 …………….P
Q10.A proton is placed in a uniform electric field directed along the positive x-axis. In which will it
tends to move?
Q11.Two charges of magnitude 2Q and -3Q are located at a points (a, 0) and (4a, 0) respectively.
What is the electric flux through a sphere of radius 5a with centre at origin?

experiences force F. What will be the force acting on the point charge when its distance from the
dipole is doubled?
Q13. A force F is acting between two charges placed some distance apart in vacuum. If a brass rod is
placed between these two charges how does the force change?
