The force between two point charges $A$ and $B$ is $F$. If $75\%$ of the charge of $A$ is transferred to $B$,then the new force between $A$ and $B$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{F}{4}$
  • B
    $4F$
  • C
    $F$
  • D
    None of these

Two identical charged conducting spheres $A$ and $B$ have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is $q$ and the force of repulsion between them is $F$. $A$ third identical uncharged conducting sphere $C$ is brought in contact with sphere $A$ first and then with $B$ and finally removed from both. The new force of repulsion between spheres $A$ and $B$ (radii of $A$ and $B$ are negligible compared to the distance of separation so that for calculating force between them they can be considered as point charges) is best given as:

Two small metal balls of different masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by strings of equal length to a fixed point. When the balls are given equal charges,the angles that the two strings make with the vertical are $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$,respectively. The ratio $m_1 / m_2$ is close to

Positive point charges are placed at the vertices of a star shape as shown in the figure. The direction of the electrostatic force on a negative point charge at the centre $O$ of the star is

Why is the Coulombian force called a two-body force?

An infinite number of charges,each of charge $1 \,\mu C$,are placed on the $x$-axis at coordinates $x = 1, 2, 4, 8, ... \infty$. If a charge of $1 \, C$ is kept at the origin,what is the net force acting on the $1 \, C$ charge in Newtons?
