Question
Write the principle of capacitor.
✓
Answer
The potential of a charged conductor can be reduced by placing another earthed conductor near it. In this way the ability of the conductor to store charge, which we call capacitance, increases. Such adjustment is called a capacitor.

Three sources of sound S1, S2 and S3 of equal intensity are placed in a straight line with S1S2 = S2S3 figure. At a point P, far away from the sources, the wave coming from S is 120° ahead in phase of that from S1. Also, the wave coming from S3 is 120° ahead of that from S2. What would be the resultant intensity of sound at P?
A spherical surface of radius 30cm separates two transparent media A and B with refractive indices 1.33 and 1.48 respectively. The medium A is on the convex side of the surface. Where should a point object be placed in medium A so that the paraxial rays become parallel after refraction at the surface?
