Find the dielectric constant of the medium?
Two point charges a distance $d$ apart in free space exert a force of $1.4\times10^{-4}N$. When the free space is replaced by a homogeneous dielectric medium, the force becomes $0.9\times10^{-4}N$. ...

Charged plane in an electric field acceleration
A perpendicular plane to an electric field's lines of force has more electric flux than a plane that is in parallel with the lines of force, right?
Does this mean that a charged plate would ...

Find the distance of a third charge [closed]
The problem I am having is:
Two positive charges (+8.0 mC and +2.0 mC) are separated by 300 m. A third charge is placed at distance r from the +8.0 mC charge in such a way that the resultant electric ...

Force due to combination of free space and dielectric
I will make a generalized form of my question.
There are two point charges $q$, $x$ distance apart.
And there is a dielectric slab of thickness $t$ and of dielectric constant $K$.
Should the force ...
