The region between two concentric spheres of radii ‘a’ and ‘b’, respectively (see figure), has volume charge density ρ = A/r , where A is a constant and r is the distance from the centre. At the centre of the spheres is a point charge Q. The value of A such that the electric field in the region between the spheres will be constant is:
A long cylindrical shell carries positive surface charge in the upper half and negative surface charge in the lower half. The electric field lines around the cylinder will look like figure given in: (figures are schematic and not drawn to scale)
Two charges, each equal to q, are kept at x = −a and x = a on the x-axis. A particle of mass m and charge qo =-q/2 is placed at the origin. If charge qo is given a small displacement (y<< a) along the y-axis, the net force acting on the particle is proportional to

This question has statement 1 and statement 2. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
An insulating solid sphere of radius R has a uniformly positive charge density ρ. As a result of this uniform charge distribution, there is a finite value of the electric potential at the centre of the sphere, at the
surface of the sphere and also at a point out side the sphere. The electric potential at infinity is zero.

Let there be a spherically symmetric charge distribution with charge density varying as upto r = R, and ρ(r) = 0 for r > R, where r is the distance from the origin. The electric field at a distance r ( r < R) from the origin is given by
