Question
A capacitor is connected to an alternating-current source. Is there a magnetic field between the plates?

Answer

When an alternating-current source is connected to a capacitor, the electric field between the plates of the capacitor keeps on changing with the applied voltage. Due to the changing electric field, a magnetic field exists in between the plates of the capacitor.

The magnifying power of a simple microscope is given by $1+\frac{\text{D}}{\text{f}},$ where D is the least distance for clear vision. For farsighted persons, D is greater than the usual. Does it mean that the magnifying power of a simple microscope is greater for a farsighted person as compared to a normal person? Does it mean that a farsighted person can see an insect more clearly under a microscope than a normal person?

In the Bohr model of hydrogen atom, the electron is treated as a particle going in a circle with the centre at the proton. The proton it self is assumed to be fixed in an inertial frame. The centripetal force is provided by the Coloumb attraction. In the ground state, the electron goes round the proton in a circle of radius $5.3 \times 10^{-11}m.$ Find the speed of the electron in the ground state. Mass of the electron $= 9.1 \times 10^{-31}kg$ and charge of the electron $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C.$
