A uniform electric field pointing in positive $x$-direction exists in a region. Let $A$ be the origin, $B$ be the point on the $x$-axis at $x = + 1$ $cm$ and $C$ be the point on the $y$-axis at $y = + 1\,cm$. Then the potentials at the points $A$, $B$ and $C$ satisfy
A${V_A} < {V_B}$
B${V_A} > {V_B}$
C${V_A} < {V_C}$
D${V_A} > {V_C}$

A point charge $q$ is held at the centre of a circle of radius $r . B, C$ are two points on the circumference of the circle and $A$ is a point outside the circle. If $W_{A B}$ represents work done by electric field in taking a charge $q_0$ from $A$ to $B$ and $W_{A C}$ represents the workdone from $A$ to $C$, then
An air filled parallel plate capacitor has capacity $C$. If distance between plates is doubled and it is immersed in a liquid then capacity becomes twice. Dielectric constant of the liquid is
The force between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ and distance of separation of the plates $d$ with a potential difference $V$ between the plates, is
