AIIMS 2018 Physics Electric Field and Charge Density MCQ Question
The expression to calculate the charge density σ is given as, E = σ/ε₀K. Substitute the values.
6 × 10⁵ = σ / ((8.85 × 10⁻¹²) (6))
σ = 36 × 8.85 × 10⁻¹² C/m²
= 3.18 × 10⁻¹⁰ C/m²
The maximum acceleration, aₘₐₓ = ω²A = k/m A = 800 Nm⁻¹ / 4 kg × 0.1 m = 20 m/s²
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Option A correctly applies the formula by substituting the electric field , the permittivity of free space , and the dielectric constant . This leads to the calculation of charge density as , confirming the relationship.
Option B incorrectly assumes a direct multiplication without proper substitution into the original equation, while Option C provides a numerical result without showing the necessary steps to derive it from the equation. Option D is unrelated to the charge density calculation, focusing instead on maximum acceleration in a different context.
