Hi Guys,

Welcome back to your own site India Study Solution

From today we are starting a new chapter Electrostatics from Physics which will have 30 sets of test series, each set containing 10 most important MCQ questions with their hints & solutions (given at the end).

(Please scroll down to find Electrostatics syllabus for NEET and JEE).

This is a very important chapter and so Friends, we would ask you to please bookmark this site or if you have not subscribed us yet then please subscribe before you forget (it is free) so that you get information whenever we publish more questions on this and other chapter / subject.

Hope it would help you to learn and enhance your confidence while preparing for NEET, JEE (IIT), AIIMS, COMEDK, NEST or any other Medical and Engineering Entrance Exams.

So, friends without wasting time let us start -

Hints and Solutions of Physics Electrostatics MCQ Test Series – Set 1 (Q. No.1–10)

https://www.indiastudysolution.com

Answer 1: d. Answer 2: d.

Answer 3: b.

Answer 4: b (Hint: On the surface of bubble same charge will distribute, so there is repulsion of charges so radius of bubble increases).

Answer 5: c. Answer 6: b.

Answer 7: d (4).

(Hint: Work done is equal to change in potential energy. In 1^st case, when charge +Q is situated at C. Electric potential energy of system.)

Answer 8: c. Answer 9: b. Answer 10: a.
