MCQ

Which among the following is false?

A
Coulomb force is a central force.
B
The force between two charges depend on the medium between them.
✓
Coulomb force is a weak force.
D
The net force on a charge is the vector sum of the forces acting on it due to several other charges.

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

Coulomb force is a weak force.

Coulomb force is a strong force. It can be shown that the Coulomb force between two electrons is $10^{43}$ times than gravitational force. All the other options are basic properties of Coulomb’s Law.

An ammeter $A$ of finite resistance, and a resistor $R$ are joined in series to an ideal cell $C$. $A$ potentiometer $P$ is joined in parallel to $R$. The ammeter reading is $I_0$ and the potentiometer reading is $V_0$. $P$ is now replaced by a voltmeter of finite resistance. The ammeter reading now is $I$ and the voltmeter reading is $V$.

Assertion: The specific charge of positive rays is not constant.
Reason: The mass of ions varies with speed.
