Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 1

When a negatively charged conductor is connected to earth,

Detailed Solution for Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 1

Explanation:

When a negatively charged conductor is connected to the earth, electrons will flow from the conductor to the earth. This is because electrons have a negative charge and they will be repelled from the negatively charged conductor and attracted to the positively charged earth. As electrons flow from the conductor to the earth, the negative charge on the conductor will gradually decrease until it becomes neutral.

  • Option A is incorrect because charge flow does occur when a negatively charged conductor is connected to the earth.
  • Option B is incorrect because protons have a positive charge and they are not free to move in a conductor.
  • Option C is incorrect because electrons flow from the earth to the conductor, not the other way around.

Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 3

Two identical conductors of copper and aluminium are placed in an identical electric field. The magnitude of induced charge in the aluminium will be:

Detailed Solution for Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 3

As aluminium and copper are metals, their mobile electrons move under the influence of the external field until they reach the surface of the metal and collect there. External electric fields induce surface changes on metal objects that exactly cancel the field within. Since the field applied is same in both case, the induced charge will be the same.
Hence, the magnitude of induced charge in the aluminium will be the equal to that of copper.

Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 4

A point charge causes an electric flux of −1.0×103Nm2/C to pass through a spherical Gaussian surface of 10.0 cm radius centred on the charge.
(a) If the radius of the Gaussian surface were doubled, how much flux would pass through the surface?
(b) What is the value of the point charge? 

Detailed Solution for Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 4

Electric flux, Φ = −1.0 × 103 N m2/C

Radius of the Gaussian surface,

r = 10.0 cm

Electric flux piercing out through a surface depends on the net charge enclosed inside a body. It does not depend on the size of the body. If the radius of the Gaussian surface is doubled, then the flux passing through the surface remains the same i.e., −103 N m2/C.

Electric flux is given by the relation,

qϕ=q∈0

Where,

q = Net charge enclosed by the spherical surface

0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.854 × 10−12 N−1 Cm−2

∴ qq=ϕ∈0

= −1.0 × 103 × 8.854 × 10−12

= −8.854 × 10−9 C

= −8.854 nC

Therefore, the value of the point charge is −8.854 nC.

Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 8

Under the influence of the coulomb field of charge +Q, a charge −q is moving around it in an elliptical orbit. Find out the correct statement(s). 

Detailed Solution for Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 8

Since the charge –q is moving in elliptical orbit so to make its motion stable the total angular momentum of the charge is constant since it experience a centripetal force from the charge +Q so it follow the motion as the motion of earth around sun.

Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 15

A charge Q is situated at the corner of a cube, the electric flux passed through all the six faces of the cube is

Detailed Solution for Test: Electric Charges & Fields - Question 15


As at a corner, 8 cubes can be placed symmetrically, flux linked with each cube (due to a charge Q at the corner)
will be 

Now for the faces passing through the edge A, electric field E at a face will be parallel to area of face and so flux for these three faces will be zero. Now as the cube has six faces and flux linked with three faces (through A) is zero, so flux linked with remaining three faces will be 
Hence, electric flux passed through all the six faces of the cube is
