The capacities and connection of five capacitors are shown in the adjoining figure. The potential difference between the points $A$ and $B$ is $60\;volts$. Then the equivalent capacity between $A$ and $B$ and the charge on $5\,\mu F$ capacitance will be respectively
A conducting body $1$ has some initial charge $Q$, and its capacitance is $C$. There are two other conducting bodies, $2$ and $3$, having capacitances : $C_2 = 2C$ and $C_3 \rightarrow \infty$ . Bodies $2 $ and $3 $ are initially uncharged. "Body $2$ is touched with body $1$. Then, body $2$ is removed from body $1 $ and touched with body $3$, and then removed." This process is repeated $N$ times. Then, the charge on body $1$ at the end must be
A fully charged capacitor has a capacitance $‘C’$. It is discharged through a small coil of resistance wire embedded in a thermally insulated block of specific heat capacity $‘s’$ and mass $‘m’$. If the temperature of the block is raised by ‘$\Delta T$’, the potential difference $‘V’$ across the capacitance is
In moving from $A$ to $B$ along an electric field line, the electric field does $6.4 \times {10^{ - 19}}\,J$ of work on an electron. If ${\phi _1},\;{\phi _2}$ are equipotential surfaces, then the potential difference $({V_C} - {V_A})$ is.....$V$
Two capacitors of capacitances $3\,\mu \,F$ and $6\,\mu F$ are charged to a potential of $12 \,V$ each. They are now connected to each other, with the positive plate of each joined to the negative plate of the other. The potential difference across each will be......$volt$
A solid conducting sphere has cavity, as shown in figure. A charge $+ {q_1}$ is situated away from the centre. A charge $+q_2$ is situated outside the sphere then true statement is
A capacitor of $10\,\mu F$ charged up to $250\, volts$ is connected in parallel with another capacitor of $5\,\mu F$ charged up to $100\, volts$. The common potential is.....$V$
Two large vertical and parallel metal plates having a separation of $1 \ cm$ are connected to a $DC$ voltage source of potential difference $X$. A proton is released at rest midway between the two plates. It is found to move at $45^{\circ}$ to the vertical $JUST$ after release. Then $X$ is nearly
