Q20. Electric Charge Force and Field
1. A small object has charge Q. Charge q is removed from it
and placed on a second small object. The two objects are
placed 1 m apart. For the force that each object exerts on
the other to be a maximum, q should be :
1. 2 Q

3. Q / 2
4. Q / 4

2. Two identical conducting spheres A and B carry equal charge.
They are separated by a distance much larger than their
diameters. A third identical conducting sphere C is
uncharged. Sphere C is first touched to A, then to B, and finally
removed. As a result, the electrostatic force between A and B,
which was originally F, becomes :
1. F / 2
2. F / 4
3. 3F / 8
4. F / 16

3. Particles 1, with charge q1, and 2, with a charge q2, are on
the x axis, with particle 1 at x = a and particle 2 at x –2a.
For the net force on a third charged particle at the origin to
be zero, q1 and q2 must be related by q2 :
1. 2 q1
2. 4 q1

4. A particle with charge 2 C is placed at the origin. An
identical particle, with the same charge, is placed 2 m from
the origin on the x axis, and a third identical particle, with the
same charge, is placed 2 m from the origin on the y axis. The
magnitude of the force on the particle at the origin is

5. A charge Q is spread uniformly along the circumference of a
circle of radius R. A point particle with charge q is placed
at the center of this circle. The total force exerted on the
particle q can be calculated by Coulomb's law :
1. just use R for the distance
2. just use 2R for the distance
3. just use 2R for the distance
4. result of the calculation is zero
5. none of the above
f 0 by symmetry.

6. A particle with charge Q is on the y axis a distance a from the
origin and a particle with charge q is on the x axis a distance d
from the origin. The value of d for which the x component

7. A particle with a charge of 5 10–6 C and a mass of 20 g
moves uniformly with a speed of 7 m/s in a circular orbit
around a stationary particle with a charge of 5 10–6 C.
The radius of the orbit is :
1. 0
2. 0.23 m
3. 0.62 m
4. 1.6 m
5. Orbit is impossible
Circular motion requires a centripetal force.
Coulomb force between the particles is however repulsive, and hence centrifugal.
