What is the SI unit of electric charge?
Which of the following is the sure (definitive) test of electrification?
The charge of an electron is:
Which particles are transferred during the process of charging by friction?
Sample Questions
Like charges attract each other.
Show answer
False
Like charges (same sign) repel each other. Unlike charges (opposite signs) attract each other. This is the fundamental law of electrostatics.
The quantisation of electric charge means that q = ±ne, where n is a positive integer.
Show answer
True
Quantisation means charge exists only as integral multiples of the elementary charge e. q = ±ne where n = 1, 2, 3, ... No charge between e and 2e can exist in free state.
The value of Coulomb's constant k (= 1/4πε₀) in SI units is:
Show answer
9 × 10⁹ N·m²·C⁻²
k = 1/4πε₀ = 9 × 10⁹ N·m²·C⁻². Note: 8.85 × 10⁻¹² is ε₀, and 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ is Newton's gravitational constant G.
Two equal positive charges are placed 1 m apart in vacuum. If the distance is doubled, the electrostatic force becomes:
Show answer
One-fourth
F ∝ 1/r². If r is doubled (r' = 2r), then F' = k·q²/(2r)² = k·q²/4r² = F/4. The force becomes one-fourth.
