C$2$
c (c) Volume of $8$ small drops $=$ Volume of big drop
$8 \times \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} = \frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3}$ $==>$ $ R = 2r$
As capacity is $r$, hence capacity becomes $2$ times.

As per this diagram a point charge $ + q$ is placed at the origin $O$. Work done in taking another point charge $ - Q$ from the point $A$ [co-ordinates $(0,\,a)$] to another point $B$ [co-ordinates $(a, 0)$] along the straight path $AB$ is
Two charges of magnitude $+ q$ and $-\,3q$ are placed $100\,cm$ apart. The distance from $+ q$ between the charges where the electrostatic potential is zero is.......$cm$
Two charges of magnitude $5\, nC$ and $-2\, nC$, one placed at points $(2\, cm, 0, 0)$ and $(x\, cm, 0, 0)$ in a region of space, where there is no other external field. If the electrostatic potential energy of the system is $ - 0.5\,\mu J$. The value of $x$ is.....$cm$
$1000$ small water drops each of radius $r$ and charge $q$ coalesce together to form one spherical drop. The potential of the big drop is larger than that of the smaller drop by a factor of
A long, hollow conducting cylinder is kept coaxially inside another long, hollow conducting cylinder of larger radius. Both the cylinders are initially electrically neutral.
The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with air as medium is $6\, \mu F$. With the introduction of a dielectric medium, the capacitance becomes $30\, \mu F$. The permittivity of the medium is..........$C ^{2} N ^{-1} m ^{-2}$
$\left(\varepsilon_{0}=8.85 \times 10^{-12} C ^{2} N ^{-1} m ^{-2}\right)$
In the adjoining figure, capacitor $(1)$ and $(2)$ have a capacitance $‘C’$ each. When the dielectric of dielectric consatnt $K$ is inserted between the plates of one of the capacitor, the total charge flowing through battery is
