The maximum electric field that can be held in air without producing ionisation of air is $10^7\,V/m$. The maximum potential therefore, to which a conducting sphere of radius $0.10\,m$ can be charged in air is
A parallel plate capacitor is made of two square parallel plates of area $A$ , and separated by a distance $d < < \sqrt A $ . The capacitor is connected to a battery with potential $V$ and allowed to fully charge. The battery is then disconnected. A square metal conducting slab also with area $A$ but thickness $\frac {d}{2}$ is then fully inserted between the plates, so that it is always parallel to the plates. How much work has been done on the metal slab by external agent while it is being inserted?
A square of side ‘$a$’ has charge $Q$ at its centre and charge ‘$q$’ at one of the corners. The work required to be done in moving the charge ‘$q$’ from the corner to the diagonally opposite corner is
Two conducting spheres of radii $5\, cm$ and $10\, cm$ are given a charge of $15\,\mu C$ each. After the two spheres are joined by a conducting wire, the charge on the smaller sphere is.......$\mu C$
