Two infinitely long parallel wires having linear charge densities λ₁ and λ₂ respectively are placed at a distance of R meters. The force per unit length on either wire will be $\left(K=\frac{{\displaystyle 1}}{{\displaystyle 4\pi {\epsilon }_0}}\right)$

(1) $K\frac{2{\lambda }_1{\lambda }_2}{R^2}$

Charge q is uniformly distributed over a thin half-ring of radius R. The electric field at the centre of the ring is

An infinite number of electric charges each equal to \(5\) nC (magnitude) are placed along the \(x\text-\)axis at \(x=1\) cm, \(x=2\) cm, \(x=4\) cm, \(x=8\) cm ………. and so on. In the setup if the consecutive charges have opposite sign, then the electric field in Newton/Coulomb at \(x=0\) is: \(\left(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} = 9 \times10^{9} ~\text{N-m}^{2}/\text{C}^{2}\right)\)
1. \(12\times 10^{4}\)
2. \(24\times 10^{4}\)
3. \(36\times 10^{4}\)
4. \(48\times 10^{4}\)

Two-point charges \(+q\) and \(–q\) are held fixed at \((–d, 0)\) and \((d, 0)\) respectively of a \((x, y)\) coordinate system. Then:

Four charges equal to – Q are placed at the four corners of a square and a charge q is at its centre. If the system is in equilibrium the value of q is 

1. $-\frac{Q}{4}(1+2\sqrt{2})$

2. $\frac{Q}{4}(1+2\sqrt{2})$

3. $-\frac{Q}{2}(1+2\sqrt{2})$

4. $\frac{Q}{2}(1+2\sqrt{2})$

Six charges are placed at the corner of a regular hexagon as shown. If an electron is placed at its centre O, force on it will be:

1. Zero

2. Along OF

3. Along OC

4. None of these

Two similar charge +Q, as shown in figure are placed at A and B. -q charge is placed at point C midway between A and B. -q charge will oscillate if

1. It is moved towards A

2. It is moved towards B

3. It is moved perpendicular to AB

4. Distance between A and B is reduced.
