Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that a positive test charge q is released from rest at a distance r away from a charge of +Q and a distance 2r which is away from a charge of +2Q.

Then test charge to the right immediately after being released.

Therefore, the net force will be as follows.

            F = \frac{kqQ}{r^{2}} - kq\frac{(2Q)}{(2r)^{2}}

               = \frac{4KqQ - 2KqQ}{4r^{2}}

               = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}}

           F = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}} > 0

Thus, we can conclude that the test charge move to the right immediately after being released.

Answer:

D) Grounding

Explanation:

The potential difference between cloud and ground leads to ionization of the atmosphere and resulting conduction through the air often to ground (although it can be between clouds at different potentials. I would say grounding, like the spark when you touch a hot battery terminal to ground on a car.

An electric field of 1.32 kV/m and a magnetic field of 0.516 T act on a moving electron to produce no net force. If the fields a
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The speed of the electron is 2.55\times 10^3\ m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The magnitude of electric field, E=1.32\ kV/m=1.32\times 10^3\ V/m

The magnitude of magnetic field, B = 0.516 T

Both the magnetic and electric fields are acting on the moving electron. Then,  the magnitude of electric field and magnetic field is balanced such that :

evB=eE\\\\v=\dfrac{E}{B}\\\\v=\dfrac{1.32\times 10^3}{0.516}\\\\v=2558.13\ m/s

or

v=2.55\times 10^3\ m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 2.55\times 10^3\ m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
