A force $F$ acts between sodium and chlorine ions of salt (sodium chloride) when put $1\,cm$ apart in air. The permittivity of air and dielectric constant of water are ${\varepsilon _0}$ and $K$ respectively. When a piece of salt is put in water electrical force acting between sodium and chlorine ions $1\,cm$ apart is
In the adjoining figure, four capacitors are shown with their respective capacities and the $P.D.$ applied. The charge and the $P.D.$ across the $4\,\mu F$ capacitor will be
Four identical charges $ + \,50\,\mu C$ each are placed, one at each corner of a square of side $2\,m$. How much external energy is required to bring another charge of $ + \,50\,\mu C$ from infinity to the centre of the square......$J$ $\left( {{\rm{Given}}\frac{{\rm{1}}}{{{\rm{4}}\pi {\varepsilon _{\rm{0}}}}} = 9 \times {{10}^9}\,\frac{{N{m^2}}}{{{C^2}}}} \right)$
Charge is uniformly distributed on the surface of a hollow hemisphere. Let $O$ and $A$ be two points on the base of the hemisphere and $V_0$ and $V_A$ be the electric potentials at $O$ and $A$ respectively. Then,
Two spherical conductors $A$ and $B$ of radius $a$ and $b (b > a)$ are placed in air concentrically $B$ is given charge $+ Q$ coulomb and $A$ is grounded. The equivalent capacitance of these is
A charge $+q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = x_0,\,x = 3x_0,\,x = 5x_0$, .... upto $\infty $ on $X-$ axis and charge $-q$ is fixed on each of the points $x = 2x_0,\,x = 4x_0,\,x = 6x_0$, .... upto $\infty $ . Here $x_0$ is a positive constant. Take the potential at a point due to a charge $Q$ at a distance $r$ from it to be $\frac{Q}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$. Then the potential at the origin due to above system of charges will be
The distance between the plates of a parallel plate condenser is $8\,mm$ and $P.D.$ $120\;volts$. If a $6\,mm$ thick slab of dielectric constant $6$ is introduced between its plates, then
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.
