MCQ
A parallel plate capacitor whose capacitance $C$ is $14\, pF$ is charged by a battery to a potential difference $V =12\, V$ between its plates. The charging battery is now disconnected and a porcelin plate with $k =7$ is inserted between the plates, then the plate would oscillate back and forth between the plates with a constant mechanical energy of $..........pJ$. (Assume no friction)
  • A
    $872$
  • B
    $972$
  • C
    $784$
  • $864$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$864$
d
$U _{ i }=\frac{1}{2} \times 14 \times 12 \times 12 pJ \quad\left(\because U =\frac{1}{2} CV ^{2}\right)$

$=1008 pJ$

$U _{ f }=\frac{1008}{7} pJ =144 pJ \quad\left(\because C _{ m }= k C _{0}\right)$

Mechanical energy $=\Delta U$

$=1008-144$

$=864 pJ$

Assertion : Newton’s rings are formed in the reflected system. When the space between the lens and the glass plate is filled with a liquid of refractive index greater than that of glass, the central spot of the pattern is dark.
