b (b) Equivalent capacitance of the circuit ${C_{eq}} = 6\,\mu F$
Charge supplied from source $Q = 6 × 20 =120 \,µC$
Hence charge on the plates of $4 \,µF$ capacitor
$ = Q' = \frac{4}{{(4 + 8)}} \times 120 = 40\,\mu C$

A $400\, pF$ capacitor is charged with a $100\, V$ battery. After disconnecting battery this capacitor is connected with another $400\, pF$ capacitor. Then find out energy loss.
A parallel plate capacitor is made of two circular plates separated by a distance $5\ mm$ and with a dielectric of dielectric constant $2.2$ between them. When the electric field in the dielectric is $3 \times 10^4$ $ Vm^{-1}$ the charge density of the positive plate will be close to
Three plates $A,\;B,\;C$each of area $50\,c{m^2}$ have separation $3\,mm$ between $A$ and $B$ and $3\,mm$ between $B$ and $C$. The energy stored when the plates are fully charged is
Three concentric metal shells $A, B$ and $C$ of respective radii $a, b$ and $c (a < b < c)$ have surface charge densities $+\sigma,-\sigma$ and $+\sigma$ respectively. The potential of shell $B$ is
There is $10$ units of charge at the centre of a circle of radius $10\,m$. The work done in moving $1\, unit$ of charge around the circle once is...........$units$
