For similar charge, $PE$ increases with decreases in $r.$ For dissimilar charge $PE$ decreases with decrease in $r.$
As $P.E.\, = \,\frac{{{Q_1}{Q_2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$

A spherical portion has been removed from a solid sphere having a charge distributed uniformly in its volume in the figure. The electric field inside the emptied space is
Two identical capacitors are joined in parallel, charged to a potential $V$ and then separated and then connected in series $i.e.$ the positive plate of one is connected to negative of the other
Four capacitors with capacitances $C_1 = 1\,\mu F, C_2 = 1.5\,\mu F, C_3 = 2.5\,\mu F$ and $C_4 = 0.5\,\mu F$ are connected as shown and are connected to a $30\, volt$ source. The potential difference between points $a$ and $b$ is.....$V$
In the $R-C$ circuit shown in the figure the total energy of $3.6 \times 10^{-3}\ J$ is dissipated in the $10$ $\Omega$ resistor when the switch $S$ is closed. The initial charge on the capacitor is.....$\mu C$
The capacitor of capacitance $4\,\mu F$ and $6\,\mu F$ are connected in series. A potential difference of $500\;volts$ applied to the outer plates of the two capacitor system. Then the charge on each capacitor is numerically
Two parallel plate capacitor with different plate seperation but the same capacitance are connected in series to a battery. Both capacitors are filled with air. The quantity that is $NOT$ the same for both the capacitors when they are fully charged is
A non-conducting ring of radius $0.5\,m$ carries a total charge of $1.11 \times {10^{ - 10}}\,C$ distributed non-uniformly on its circumference producing an electric field $\vec E$ everywhere in space. The value of the line integral $\int_{l = \infty }^{l = 0} {\, - \overrightarrow E .\overrightarrow {dl} } \,(l = 0$ being centre of the ring) in volt is
Two capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2 = 2C_1$ are connected in a circuit with a switch between them as shown in the figure. Initially the switch is open and $C_1$ holds charge $Q$. The switch is closed. At steady state, the charge on each capacitor will be
Two capacitors of capacities ${C_1}$ and ${C_2}$ are charged to voltages ${V_1}$ and ${V_2}$ respectively. There will be no exchange of energy in connecting them in parallel, if
