(c) $\frac{1}{{{C_{eq}}}} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{{10}} + \frac{1}{{15}} \Rightarrow {C_{eq}} = 2\,\mu F$
Charge on each capacitor
$Q = C_{eq} × V \Rightarrow 2 \times 100 = 200\,\mu C$

For changing the capacitance of a given parallel plate capacitor, a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ is used, which has the same area as the plates of the capacitor. The thickness of the dielectric slab is $\frac{3}{4} d$, where $'d'$ is the separation between the plates of parallel plate capacitor. The new capacitance $(C')$ in terms of original capacitance $\left( C _{0}\right)$ is given by the following relation
There are four concentric shells $A, B, C $ and $D $ of radii $ a, 2a, 3a$ and $4a$ respectively. Shells $B$ and $D$ are given charges $+q$ and $-q$ respectively. Shell $C$ is now earthed. The potential difference $V_A - V_C $ is :
A simple pendulum of mass $'m',$ length $'I'$ and charge $'+q'$ suspended in the electric field produced by two conducting parallel plates as shown. The value of deflection of pendulum in equilibrium position will be -
Figure shows a solid hemisphere with a charge of $5\ nC$ distributed uniformly through its volume. The hemisphere lies on a plane and point $P$ is located on this plane, along a radial line from the centre of curvature at distance $15\ cm$. The electric potential at point $P$ due to the hemisphere, is .....$V$
A capacitor is charged by a battery. The battery is removed and another identical uncharged capacitor is connected in parallel. The total electrostatic energy of resulting system
The charge across the capacitor in two different $RC$ circuits $1$ and $2$ are plotted as shown in figure. Choose the correct statement $(s)$ related to the two circuits.
The electric potential varies in space according to the relation $V = 3x + 4y$. A particle of mass $0.1\,\, kg$ starts from rest from point $(2, 3·2)$ under the influence of this field. The charge on the particle is $+1\,\, μC$. Assume $V$ and $(x, y)$ are in $S.I.$ $units$ . The time taken to cross the $x-$ axis is.....$s$
