    Two small equal point charges of magnitude $q$ are suspended from a common point on the ceiling by insulating mass less strings of equal lengths. They come to equilibrium with each string making angle $\theta $ from the vertical. If the mass of each charge is $m,$ then the electrostatic potential at the centre of line joining them will be $\left( {\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}} = k} \right).$

    . Three identical capacitors $C _1, C _2$ and $C _3$ have a capacitance of $1.0 \mu F$ each and they are uncharged initially. They are connected in a circuit as shown in the figure and $C _1$ is then filled completely with a dielectric material of relative permittivity $\varepsilon_{ r }$. The cell electromotive force (emf) $V_0=8 V$. First the switch $S_1$ is closed while the switch $S_2$ is kept open. When the capacitor $C_3$ is fully charged, $S_1$ is opened and $S_2$ is closed simultaneously. When all the capacitors reach equilibrium, the charge on $C _3$ is found to be $5 \mu C$. The value of $\varepsilon_{ r }=$. . . . .
