Four metal conductors having different shapes
I. A sphere
II. Cylinder
III. Pear
IV. Lightning conductor
are mounted on insulating stands and charged. The one which is best suited to retain the charges for a longer time is

are mounted on insulating stands and charged. The one which is best suited to retain the charges for a longer time is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
1
Option A (1) is correct because a sphere distributes charge uniformly, minimizing charge concentration and leakage, thus retaining charge longer.

Assertion:- Electric field lines do not cut at any point.
Reason:- At any point, there is only one direction of electric field. Statement-I: A positive point charge is brought in an electric field, the electric field at neary by point will increase
Statement-II: Electric field produced by charge may favour the existing electric filed Two particles having equal mass and charge
are separated by a distance The force(s) they
experience is (are) Statement-I: No 2 electric lines of force can intersect each other
Statement-II: tangent at any point of electric line of force gives the direction of electric field A force of is acting between two charges in air if the space between them is completely filled with glass , then the new force will be …… An electron is placed at centre of a conducting sphere of radius 0.2 metre having charge coulomb. The force of on the electron is ________ N
