Three charges, each $+q,$ are placed at the comers of an isosceles triangle $ABC$ of sides $BC$ and $AC, 2a.$ $D$ and $E$ are the mid-points of $BC$ and $CA.$ The work done in taking a charge $Q$ from $D$ to $E$ is
A non-conducting ring of radius $0.5\,m$ carries a total charge of $1.11 \times {10^{ - 10}}\,C$ distributed non-uniformly on its circumference producing an electric field $\vec E$ everywhere in space. The value of the line integral $\int_{l = \infty }^{l = 0} {\, - \overrightarrow E .\overrightarrow {dl} } \,(l = 0$ being centre of the ring) in volt is
A parallel plate capacitor is filled with $3$ dielectric materials of same thickness, as shown in the sketch. The dielectric constants are such that $k_3 > k_2 > k_1$. Let the magnitudes of the electric field in and potential drops across each dielectric be $E_3$, $E_2$,$ E_1$, $\Delta V_3$, $\Delta V_2$ and $\Delta V_1$, respectively. Which one of the following statement is true ?
At time $\mathrm{t}=0$, a battery of $10 \mathrm{~V}$ is connected across points $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ in the given circuit. If the capacitors have no charge initially, at what time (in seconds) does the voltage across them becomes $4$ volt?
In a uniform electric field, the potential is $10$ $V $ at the origin of coordinates, and $8$ $V$ at each of the points $(1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0) $ and $(0, 0, 1)$. The potential at the point $(1, 1, 1)$ will be....$V$
The potential at a point $P$ due to an electric dipole is $1.8\times 10^5\,V$ . If $P$ is at a distance of $50\,cm$ apart from the centre $O$ of the dipole and if $CP$ makes an angle $60^o$ with the positive side of the axial line of the dipole, what is the moment of the dipole?
