d $\frac{V}{{{V_0}}} = \frac{{{C_0}}}{C} = \frac{1}{K} = \frac{1}{8}$
$\therefore $ $K = 8$

Four capacitors of capacitance $10\,mF$ and a battery of $200\,V$ are arranged as shown. How much charge will flow through $AB$ after the switch $S$ is closed .....$\mu C$
A capacitor of $10 \mu \mathrm{F}$ capacitance whose plates are separated by $10 \mathrm{~mm}$ through air and each plate has area $4 \mathrm{~cm}^2$ is now filled equally with two dielectric media of $\mathrm{K}_1=2, \mathrm{~K}_2=3$ respectively as shown in figure. If new force between the plates is $8 \mathrm{~N}$. The supply voltage is . . . .. . .V.
A frictionless dielectric plate $S$ is kept on a frictionless table $T$. A charged parallel plate capacitance $C$ (of which the plates are frictionless) is kept near it. The plate $S$ is between the plates. When the plate $S$ is left between the plates
The potential at a point $x$ (measured in $μ\ m$) due to some charges situated on the $ x$-axis is given by $V(x)$ =$\frac{{20}}{{{x^2} - 4}}$ $volt$ The electric field $E$ at $x = 4\ μ m$ is given by
If identical charges $( - q)$ are placed at each corner of a cube of side $b$, then electric potential energy of charge $( + q)$ which is placed at centre of the cube will be
Two identical parallel plate capacitors, of capacitance $C$ each, have plates of area $A$, separated by a distance $d$. The space between the plates of the two capacitors, is filled with three dielectrics, of equal thickness and dielectric constants $K_1$ , $K_2$ and $K_3$ . The first capacitor is filled as shown in fig. $I$, and the second one is filled as shown in fig. $II$. If these two modified capacitors are charged by the same potential $V$, the ratio of the energy stored in the two, would be ( $E_1$ refers to capacitor $(I)$ and $E_2$ to capacitor $(II)$)
A two point charges $4 q$ and $-q$ are fixed on the $x-$axis at $x=-\frac{d}{2}$ and $x=\frac{d}{2},$ respectively. If a third point charge $'q'$ is taken from the origin to $x = d$ along the semicircle as shown in the figure, the energy of the charge will
