A 20 nC point charge is located at P (2, 4, 3) in free space. Find (a) E(r). (b) E at A ( 3, 2, 0). (c) The locus of all points at which Ex= 1V /m. Two point charges of Q1 coulomb each are located at (0, 0, 1) and (0, 0, 1). Determine the locus of all possible positions of a third charge Q2 where Q2 may have any desired positive or negative value, such that the electric field intensity E = 0 at (0, 1, 0). What is the locus if the original charges are Q1 and Q1?

A volume charge density = k / r (r 0, and k= a constant) exists within a sphere of radius a. This charge distribution produces a certain electric field at r > a. Determine (a) The charge inside the sphere. (b) The value of a point charge placed at the origin which will produce the same field at r > a.

A straight wire L meter long is charged uniformly over one half of its length with a charge Q and over the other half of its length with a charge Q. Find the electrostatic field at points along (a) The axis of wire. (b) The perpendicular bisector of wire. A circular disk with radius a having a uniform surface charge density C/m2. Determine The electric field intensity at point P (0, 0, h) located on the axis of the disk.
