B$5 \times 10^7$
b Average energy $=$ workdone $=q E \lambda$
$2 eV =e E \times 4 \times 10^{-8}$
$E=\frac{2}{4 \times 10^{-8} m }=5 \times 10^7 \;Vm ^{-1}$

In an adjoining figure are shown three capacitors ${C_1}$,${C_2}$ and ${C_3}$ joined to a battery. The correct condition will be (Symbols have their usual meanings)
This question contains Statement$-1$ and Statement$-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement$-1$ : For a charged particle moving from point $P$ to point $Q$, the net work done by an electrostatic field on the particle is independent of the path connecting point $P$ to point $Q$.
Statement$-2$ : The net work done by a conservative force on an object moving along a closed loop is zero.
A capacitor of capacity $C$ is connected with a battery of potential $V$ in parallel. The distance between its plates is reduced to half at once, assuming that the charge remains the same. Then to charge the capacitance upto the potential $V$ again, the energy given by the battery will be
Assertion : Charges are given to plates of two plane parallel plate capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2$ (such that $C_2 = 2C_1$ ) as shown in figure. Then the key $K$ is pressed to complete the circuit. Finally the net charge on upper plate and net charge the circuit. Finally the net charge on upper plate and net charge on lower plate of capacitor $C_1$ is positive.
Reason : In a parallel plate capacitor both plates always carry equal and opposite charge.
A force of $10 \; N$ acts on a charged particle placed between two plates of a charged capacitor. If one plate of capacitor is removed, then the force acting on that particle will be ...... $N$
A $10\,\mu F$ capacitor and a $20\,\mu F$ capacitor are connected in series across a $200\;V$ supply line. The charged capacitors are then disconnected from the line and reconnected with their positive plates together and negative plates together and no external voltage is applied. What is the potential difference across each capacitor
If the electric potential at any point $(x, y, z) \,m$ in space is given by $V =3 x ^{2}$ volt. The electric field at the point $(1,0,3) \,m$ will be ............
