A parallel plate capacitor is to be designed, using a dielectric of dielectric constant $5$, so as to have a dielectric strength of $10^9\;Vm^{-1}$ . If the voltage rating of the capacitor is $12\;kV$, the minimum area of each plate required to have a capacitance of $80\;pF$ is
  • A$10.5 \times 10^{-6} \;m ^2$
  • B$25.0 \times 10^{-5}\; m ^2$
  • C$12.5 \times 10^{-5}\; m ^2$
  • D$21.7 \times 10^{-6} \;m ^2$

    Consider an initially neutral hollow conducting spherical shell with inner radius $r$ and outer radius $2 r$. A point charge $+Q$ is now placed inside the shell at a distance $r / 2$ from the centre. The shell is then grounded by connecting the outer surface to the earth. $P$ is an external point at a distance $2 r$ from the point charge $+Q$ on the line passing through the centre and the point charge $+Q$ as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the force on a test charge $+q$ placed at $P$ will be
