Which one statement is correct ? A parallel plate air condenser is connected with a battery. Its charge, potential, electric field and energy are ${Q_o},\;{V_o},\;{E_o}$ and ${U_o}$ respectively. In order to fill the complete space between the plates a dielectric slab is inserted, the battery is still connected. Now the corresponding values $Q,\;V,\;E$ and $U$ are in relation with the initially stated as
A$Q > {Q_o}$
B$U > {U_o}$
C$E > {E_o}$

d (d) Capacitance will be increased when a dielectric is introduced in the capacitor but potential difference will remain the same because battery is still connected. So according to $q = CV$, charge will increase i.e. $Q > {Q_0}$ and $U = \frac{1}{2}Q{V_0},\,{U_0} = \frac{1}{2}{Q_0}{V_0}$ $==>$ $Q > {Q_0}$ so $U > {U_0}$

A simple pendulum of length $L$ is placed between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor having electric field $E,$ as shown in figure. Its bob has mass $m$ and charge $q.$ the time period of the pendulum is given by
There is a uniform electrostatic field in a region. The potential at various points on a small sphere centred at $P$, in the region, is found to vary between in the limits $589.0\,V$ to $589.8\, V$. What is the potential at a point on the sphere whose radius vector makes an angle of $60^o$ with the direction of the field ?........$V$
Six point charges are placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon of side $a$ as shown. If $E$ represents electric field and $V$ represents electric potential at $O$, then
An electric dipole is formed by two charges $+q$ and $-q$ located in xy-plane at $(0,2) \mathrm{mm}$ and $(0,-2) \mathrm{mm}$, respectively, as shown in the figure. The electric potential at point $\mathrm{P}(100,100) \mathrm{mm}$ due to the dipole is $V_0$. The charges $+q$ and $-q$ are then moved to the points $(-1,2) \mathrm{mm}$ and $(1,-2) \mathrm{mm}$, respectively. What is the value of electric potential at $P$ due to the new dipole?
A spherical conductor of radius $2m$ is charged to a potential of $120\, V$. It is now placed inside another hollow spherical conductor of radius $6m$. Calculate the potential to which the bigger sphere would be raised......$V$
A particle of charge $Q$ and mass $M$ moves in a circular path of radius $R$ in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude $B$. The same particle now moves with the same speed in a circular path of same radius $R$ in the space between the cylindrical electrodes of the cylindrical capacitor. The radius of the inner electrode is $R/2$ while that of the outer electrode is $ 3R/2.$ Then the potential difference between the capacitor electrodes must be
