At a certain distance from a point charge, the field intensity is $500\, Vm^{-1}$ and the potential is $-3000\, V$. The distance to the charge and the magnitude of the charge respectively are
Two metallic plates form a parallel plate capacitor. The distance between the plates is $'d'.$ A metal sheet of thickness $\frac{d}{2}$ and of area equal to area of each plate is introduced between the plates. What will be the ratio of the new capacitance to the original capacitance of the capacitor $?$
A $4\, \,\mu F$ condenser is charged to $400\, V$ and then its plates are joined through a resistance. The heat produced in the resistance is.......$J$
charge $Q$ is uniformly distributed over a long rod $AB$ of length $L$ as shown in the figure. The electric potential at the point $O$ lying at distance $L$ from the end $A$ is
A thin metal plate $P$ is inserted half way between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ in such a way that it is parallel to the two plates. The capacitance now becomes
