(c) Firstly being a conductor it is attracted by the high voltage plate, when charge is shared, ball is repelled until it goes to other plate and whole of the charge is transferred to the earth and the process is repeated.

A parallel plate capacitor has a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K$ between its plates that covers $1 / 3$ of the area of its plates, as shown in the figure. The total capacitance of the capacitor is $C$ while that of the portion with dielectric in between is $C _1$. When the capacitor is charged, the plate area covered by the dielectric gets charge $Q_1$ and the rest of the area gets charge $Q_2$. Choose the correct option/options, igonoring edge effects.
$(A)$ $\frac{E_1}{E_2}=1$ $(B)$ $\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{1}{K}$ $(C)$ $\frac{Q_1}{Q_2}=\frac{3}{K}$ $(D)$ $\frac{ C }{ C _1}=\frac{2+ K }{ K }$
A parallel plate condenser is connected with the terminals of a battery. The distance between the plates is $6\,mm$. If a glass plate (dielectric constant $K = 9$) of $4.5\,mm$ is introduced between them, then the capacity will become.......$times$
Two charged capacitors have their outer plates fixed and inner plates connected by a spring of force constant ' $k$ '. The charge on each capacitor is q. Find the extension in the spring at equilibrium
Two small equal point charges of magnitude $q$ are suspended from a common point on the ceiling by insulating mass less strings of equal lengths. They come to equilibrium with each string making angle $\theta $ from the vertical. If the mass of each charge is $m,$ then the electrostatic potential at the centre of line joining them will be $\left( {\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}} = k} \right).$
A condenser of $2\,\mu F$ capacitance is charged steadily from $0$ to $5\,C$. Which of the following graph represents correctly the variation of potential difference $(V)$ across it's plates with respect to the charge $(Q)$ on the condenser?
The potential at a point due to an electric dipole will be maximum and minimum when the angles between the axis of the dipole and the line joining the point to the dipole are respectively
