Starting from rest an electron moves through a small distance in a uniform electric field of magnitude $2 \times {10}^4 N{C}^{-1}$. The direction of the field is reserved keeping the magnitude unchanged and a proton moves through the same distance. The time of motion will be

1.  Same in both cases

2.  More in the case of an electron

3.  More in the case of proton

4.  Independent of charge

A source charge Q is kept at a distance of 3 km from a test charge $q_0$. If Q is displaced slightly, then the change in the electric field detected by $q_0$ will be after

Two-point charges -q and +9q are kept at r = 12 cm apart as shown. The electric field is zero at:

4.  18 cm from the point B towards A

Two-point charges \(+2~\mu\text{C}\) and \(+6~\mu\text{C}\) repel each other with a force of \(60~\text{N}\). If a charge \(-4~\mu\text{C}\) is added to each of them, the force between them will become:

3. \(20~\text{N}\)
4. \(40~\text{N}\)

A cone of the radius of base 1 m and height 2 m is placed with its base in the xz plane in a region with the uniform electric field $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}} = 20 \hat{\mathrm{i}}$ V/m as shown in the figure. The magnitude of electric flux linked with the cone is

There are two charges 1 $\mathrm{\mu C}$ and 2 $\mathrm{\mu C}$. The ratio of the magnitude of forces acting on them due to their interaction will be
