Effective capacitance of parallel combination of two capacitors $\mathrm{C}_{1}$ and $\mathrm{C}_{2}$ is $10\; \mu \mathrm{F}$. When these capacitors are individually connected to a voltage source of $1\; \mathrm{V},$ the energy stored in the capacitor $\mathrm{C}_{2}$ is $4$ times that of $\mathrm{C}_{1}$. If these capacitors are connected in series, their effective capacitance will be
A molecule with a dipole moment $p$ is placed in an electric field of strength $E$. Initially the dipole is aligned parallel to the field. If the dipole is to be rotated to be anti-parallel to the field, the work required to be done by an external agent is
Two parallel plates have equal and opposite charge. When the space between them is evacuated, the electric field between the plates is $2 \times {10^5}\,V/m$. When the space is filled with dielectric, the electric field becomes $1 \times {10^5}\,V/m$. The dielectric constant of the dielectric material
A particle of mass $m$ having negative charge $q$ move along an ellipse around a fixed positive charge $Q$ so that its maximum and minimum distances from fixed charge are equal to $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. The angular momentum $L$ of this particle is
The gap between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of area $A$ and distance between plates $d$, is filled with a dielectric whose permittivity varies linearly from ${ \varepsilon _1}$ at one plate to ${ \varepsilon _2}$ at the other. The capacitance of capacitor is
A capacitor of $4\, \mu F$ is connected to a $15\, V$ supply through $1$ mega ohm resistance. The time taken by the capacitor to charge upto $63.2\%$ of its final charge will be......$s$
The mean free path of electrons in a metal is $4 \times 10^{-8} \;m$. The electric field which can give on an average $2 \;eV$ energy to an electron in the metal will be in units of $V / m$
