The electric potential at a point $(x, y, z)$ is given by $V=-x^2y-xz^3 +4 $. The electric field at that point is
A$\vec E = 2xy\hat i + \left( {{x^2} + {y^2}} \right)\hat j + \left( {3xz - {y^2}} \right)\hat k$
B$\;\vec E = {z^3}\hat i + xyz\hat j + {z^2}\hat k$
C$\;\vec E = \left( {2xy - {z^3}} \right)\hat i + x{y^2}\hat j + 3{z^2}x\hat k$
D$\;\vec E = \left( {2xy + {z^3}} \right)\hat i + {x^2}\hat j + 3x{z^2}\hat k$

d The electric potential at a point,
$V=-x^{2} y-x z^{3}+4.$
The field $\vec{E}=-\vec{\nabla} V=-\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial x} \hat{i}+\frac{\partial V}{\partial y} \hat{j}+\frac{\partial V}{\partial z} \hat{k}\right)$
$\therefore \vec{E}=\hat{i}\left(2 x y+z^{3}\right)+\hat{j} x^{2}+\hat{k}\left(3 x z^{2}\right)$

An elementary particle of mass $m$ and charge $ + e$ is projected with velocity $v$ at a much more massive particle of charge $Ze,$ where $Z > 0.$What is the closest possible approach of the incident particle
Three charges $Q,\, + q$ and $ + q$ are placed at the vertices of a right-angled isosceles triangle as shown. The net electrostatic energy of the configuration is zero if $Q$ is equal to
Three charged capacitors, $C_1$ = $17\ μF$, $C_2$ = $34\ μF$, $C_3$ = $41\ μF$and two open switches, $S_1$ and $S_2$ are assembled into a network with initial voltages and polarities, as shown. Final status of the network is attained when the two switches, $S_1$ and $S_2$ are closed. In the figure, the final charge on capacitor $C_3$ in $mC$, is closet to:
Two capacitors of capacitances $C$ and $2\, C$ are charged to potential differences $V$ and $2\, V$, respectively. These are then connected in parallel in such a manner that the positive terminal of one is connected to the negative terminal of the other. The final energy of this configuration is$.....CV^2$
Two identical capacitors $1$ and $2$ are connected in series. The capacitor $2$ contains a dielectric slab of constant $K$ as shown. They are connected to a battery of emf $V_0\ volts$ . The dielectric slab is then removed. Let $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ be the charge stored in the capacitors before removing the slab and $Q'_1$ , and $Q'_2$ be the values after removing the slab. Then
A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance $C$. If it is equally filled with parallel layers of materials of dielectric constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ its capacity becomes $C_1$. The ratio of $C_1$ to $C$ is
Concentric metallic hollow spheres of radii $R$ and $4 R$ hold charges $Q _{1}$ and $Q _{2}$ respectively. Given that surface charge densities of the concentric spheres are equal, the potential difference $V ( R )- V (4 R )$ is
