The electrostatic field due to a charged conductor just outside the conductor is:

1. zero and parallel to the surface at every point inside the conductor.
2. zero and is normal to the surface at every point inside the conductor.
3. parallel to the surface at every point and zero inside the conductor.
4. normal to the surface at every point and zero inside the conductor.

A total charge \(Q\) is broken in two parts \(Q_1\) and \(Q_2\) and they are placed at a distance \(R\) from each other. The maximum force of repulsion between them will occur, when:

1. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{R}, Q_1=Q-\frac{Q}{R}\)            
2. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{4}, Q_1=Q-\frac{2 Q}{3}\)            
3. \(Q_2=\frac{Q}{4}, Q_1=\frac{3 Q}{4}\)            
4. \(Q_1=\frac{Q}{2}, Q_2=\frac{Q}{2}\)

Two spherical conductors B and C having equal radii and carrying equal charges in them repel each other with a force F when kept apart at some distance. A third spherical conductor having same radius as that of B but uncharged is brought in contact with B, then brought in contact with C and finally removed away from both. The new force of repulsion between B and C is:

1. F/4

2. 3 F/4

3. F/8

4. 3 F/8
