Question

A ________ charge shows the direction of electric force at a point due to a charged body.

  1. Neutral
  2. Test
  3. Unit
  4. Negative

hintHint:

Test charge

The correct answer is: Test


    • A test charge shows the direction of electric force at a point due to a charged body. 
    • So, the correct answer is test.

    • A test charge is a charge with a magnitude so small that placing it at a point has a negligible affect on the field around the point.
    • A positive test charge is a unit positive charge which is used to determine the strength and direction of an electric field.

    The electric force ___________ on the medium between the charges.

    • K= 1/4πε
    • The value of k depends on the electric permittivity of the medium (ε).
    • And the electric permittivity of a medium (ε) depends on the nature of the medium.
    • Therefore, the value of K is different for different medium.
    • Hence, the electrostatic force depends on the medium between the two charges.
