TOPIC: ELECTROSTATIC FORCE
1 What is the force between two small, charged sphere having charges
of 2 × 10−7 𝐶 and 3× 10−7 𝐶 placed 30 cm apart?
2 Four point charges 𝑞𝐴 = 2𝜇𝐶 𝑞𝐵 = −5𝜇𝐶 𝑞𝐶 = 2𝜇𝐶 and
𝑞𝐷 = −5𝜇𝐶 are located at the corners of a square ABCD of side
10cm. What is the force on charge 𝑞𝐵 .
3 Two point charges +q and +4q are placed 12 cm apart. Where
should a third charge -q be placed such it will be in equilibrium.
4 Point charges +1 𝜇𝐶 , +1 𝜇𝐶 and -1 𝜇𝐶 are placed at the corners A,B
and C of an equilateral triangle ABC of side 0.3m. Calculate
resultant force on charge B.
5 Two charges attract each other with a force of 4× 10−6 𝑁 when they
are 0.4 m apart. When the distance of separation is increased to
0.6 m, Find the force between them.
