There exists a uniform electric field $E=4 \times 10^5 \,Vm ^{-1}$ directed along negative $x$-axis such that electric potential at origin is zero. Acharge of $-200 \,\mu C$ is placed at origin, and a charge of $+200 \,\mu C$ is placed at $(3 \,m , 0)$. The electrostatic potential energy of the system is ...........$J$
A thin metal plate $P$ is inserted half way between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ in such a way that it is parallel to the two plates. The capacitance now becomes
A parallel plate capacitor having capacitance $12\, pF$ is charged by a battery to a potential difference of $10\, V$ between its plates. The charging battery is now disconnected and a porcelain slab of dielectric constant $6.5$ is slipped between the plates. The work done by the capacitor on the slab is.......$pJ$
The electric potential $V(x)$ in a region around the origin is given by $V(x) = 4x^2\,volts$ . The electric charge enclosed in a cube of $1\,m$ side with its centre at the origin is (in coulomb)
In a uniform electric field, a cube of side $1\ cm$ is placed. The total energy stored in the cube is $8.85\mu J$ . The electric field is parallel to four of the faces of the cube. The electric flux through any one of the remaining two faces is.
The expression for the capacity of the capacitor formed by compound dielectric placed between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor as shown in figure, will be (area of plate $ = A$)
