The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are charged up to $100 \,volt$ . A $2 \,mm$ thick plate is  inserted between the plates, then to maintain the same potential difference, the distance  between the capacitor plates is increased by $1.6\, mm$. The dielectric constant of the plate  is :-
  • A$5$
  • B$1.25$
  • C$4$
  • D$2.5$

    Consider an initially neutral hollow conducting spherical shell with inner radius $r$ and outer radius $2 r$. A point charge $+Q$ is now placed inside the shell at a distance $r / 2$ from the centre. The shell is then grounded by connecting the outer surface to the earth. $P$ is an external point at a distance $2 r$ from the point charge $+Q$ on the line passing through the centre and the point charge $+Q$ as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the force on a test charge $+q$ placed at $P$ will be
