$(A)$ $E_A^{\text {lnside }}=0$

$(B)$ $Q_A > Q_B$

$(C)$ $\frac{\sigma_A}{\sigma_B}=\frac{R_B}{R_A}$

    A solid sphere of radius $R$ carries a charge $(Q+q)$ distributed uniformly over its volume. A very small point like piece of it of mass $m$ gets detached from the bottom of the sphere and falls down vertically under gravity. This piece carries charge $q.$ If it acquires a speed $v$ when it has fallen through a vertical height $y$ (see figure), then :

    (assume the remaining portion to be spherical).

    Assertion : Charges are given to plates of two plane parallel plate capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2$ (such that $C_2 = 2C_1$ ) as shown in figure. Then the key $K$ is pressed to complete the circuit. Finally the net charge on upper plate and net charge the circuit. Finally the net charge on upper plate and net charge on lower plate of capacitor $C_1$ is positive.

    Reason : In a parallel plate capacitor both plates always carry equal and opposite charge.
