Aspherical shell with an inner radius $'a'$ and an outer radius $'b' $ is made of conducting material. A point charge $+Q$ is placed at the centre of the spherical shell and a total charge $- q $ is placed on the shell.
Charge $- q $ is distributed on the surfaces as
A$- Q$ on the inner surface, $- q$ on outer surface
B$- Q$ on the inner surface, $- q + Q$ on the outer surface
C$+Q$ on the inner surface, $-q - Q$ on the outer surface
DThe charge $-q$ is spread uniformly between the inner and outer surface.

B$- Q$ on the inner surface, $- q + Q$ on the outer surface
b The presence of charge $Q$ at the center of the spherical shell induces a equal and opposite charge on the inner surface of the shell, i.e., $-Q$ at the inner surface. This $-Q$ charge will induce a equal and opposite charge on the outer surface of the shell, i.e., $Q$. Also charge $-q$ is placed on the shell. Therefore total charge on the outer surface is $-q+Q$

A uniformly charged solid sphere of radius $R$ has potential $V_0$ (measured with respect to $\infty$) on its surface. For this sphere the equipotential surfaces with potentials $\frac{{3{V_0}}}{2},\;\frac{{5{V_0}}}{4},\;\frac{{3{V_0}}}{4}$ and $\frac{{{V_0}}}{4}$ have rasius $R_1,R_2,R_3$ and $R_4$ respectively. Then
An empty thick conducting shell of inner radius $a$ and outer radius $b$ is shown in figure.If it is observed that the inner face of the shell carries a uniform charge density $-\sigma$ and the surface carries a uniform charge density $ '\sigma '$

Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ $(K_1 < K_2)$ are inserted between plates of a parallel plate capacitor, as shown in the figure. The variation of electric field $E$ between the plates with distance $d$ as measured from plate $P$ is correctly shown by
Figure shows a solid hemisphere with a charge of $5\ nC$ distributed uniformly through its volume. The hemisphere lies on a plane and point $P$ is located on this plane, along a radial line from the centre of curvature at distance $15\ cm$. The electric potential at point $P$ due to the hemisphere, is .....$V$

The maximum electric field that can be held in air without producing ionisation of air is $10^7\,V/m$. The maximum potential therefore, to which a conducting sphere of radius $0.10\,m$ can be charged in air is
The charge across the capacitor in two different $RC$ circuits $1$ and $2$ are plotted as shown in figure. Identify the correct statement$(s)$ related to the $R_1, R_2, C_1 $ and $C_2$ of the two $RC$ circuits.
The energy and capacity of a charged parallel plate capacitor are $U$ and $C$ respectively. Now a dielectric slab of $\in _r = 6$ is inserted in it then energy and capacity becomes (Assume charge on plates remains constant)
