NCERT lines NEET asked again and again

Read these lines from your NCERT book twice: NEET has built questions on each of them more than once.

On the equatorial line the dipole field is E = p/(4πε₀ r³), opposite to p . It falls as 1/r³ , faster than a point charge.

AIPMT 1996AIPMT 1998NEET 2020

Total flux through a closed surface is q_(enc)/ε₀ . It does not depend on the surface's shape or size, nor on charges outside it.

AIPMT 2011NEET 2023NEET 2023

For a hollow charged shell, the field inside is zero . Outside it equals that of a point charge at the centre, falling as 1/r².

AIPMT 2010NEET 2019NEET 2020

A charge q midway between two equal charges Q stays in balance for any q, but the outer ones balance only if q = -Q/4 (opposite sign to Q).

AIPMT 1995NEET 2013

The force eE is the same on both, so a = eE/m and the light electron accelerates far more . It covers the same height in less time, since t ∝√m.
