This document features 45 carefully selected and verified multiple-choice questions with correct answers, created for Phys 202 – University Physics II at Texas A&M University. It reflects the format and content of Exam 1 for the 2025/2026 academic year, offering comprehensive coverage of essential topics such as electric charge interactions, Coulomb’s Law, Gauss’s Law, electric fields and potentials, energy and work in electrostatics, capacitors and their configurations (series and parallel), resistor networks, Ohm’s Law, current flow, and Kirchhoff’s rules. The content includes both conceptual and quantitative questions, making it ideal for in-depth practice and exam preparation. Questions are grounded in real-world applications like charged particles in fields, electric circuits with batteries and resistors, capacitor behavior, and force calculations involving multiple charges. This resource is particularly useful for: Students in University Physics II or Calculus-Based Electricity and Magnetism Engineering majors taking introductory electromagnetism courses Pre-med and STEM students who need strong fundamentals in electric circuits and electrostatics With clear answers and a focus on core principles, this document is ideal for mastering the material needed to succeed in early-semester physics exams. Keywords: electric charge, electric field, Gauss’s law, capacitors, resistors, circuits, Ohm’s law, Kirchhoff’s rules, electric potential, energy in electric fields, charge interaction, electric force, parallel circuits, series circuits, current, electric flux, capacitor behavior, electrostatics

Two charged balls are repelling each other as they hang from the ceiling.

What can you say about their charges? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔both are positive

or both are negative

When you rub a plastic rod with fur, the plastic rod becomes negatively

charged and the fur becomes positively charged. As a consequence of

rubbing the rod with the fur, - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the rod gains mass and the fur

loses mass

, when 1.0 uC point charge is 18m from a second point charge, the force

each one experiences is of 1.0 uN. what is the magnitude of the second

charge? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔36 nC


if we increase charge 1 to 5Q, what is the magnitude of F1 (3N)? (F1 and

F2 repel each other) - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔15N


Two balls with charges +Q and +4Q are

fixed at a separation distance of 7R. Is it

possible to place another charged ball Q0

on the line between the two charges such


that the net force on Q0 will be zero? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔yes, independent of

the sign or value of Q0
