Physics Electrostatics Potential & Capacitance JEE (Main) / AIEEE Problems Previous Years - ( Capacitance ) MCQ (Single Correct)

The electric field E is measured at a point P(0, 0, d) generated due to various charge distributions and the dependence of E on d is found to be different for different charge distributions. List-I contains different relations between E and d. List-II describes different electric charge distributions, along with their locations. Match the functions in List-I with the related charge distributions in List-II.

List-I

List-II

P.

E is independent of d

1.

Q.

E µ 1/d

2.

A small dipole with point charges Q at (0, 0, l) and –Q at (0, 0, –l)

Take 2l << d

R.

3.

An infinite line charge coincident with the x-axis, with uniform linear charge density l.

S.

E µ 1/d3

4.

Two infinite wires carrying uniform linear charge density parallel to the x-axis. The one along (y = 0, z = l) has a charge density +l and the one along (y = 0, z = –l) has a charge density –l. Take 2l << d

5.

Infinite plane charge coincident with the xy-plane with uniform surface charge density.
