Solution
If a charge – 150 nC is given to a concentric spherical shell and a charge +50 nC is placed at its centre then the charge on inner and outer surface of the shell is
-
Solution
Whenever a charge (+50 nC) is kept inside a hollow metallic spherical shell, it induces an equal and opposite charge on the inner surface and an equal and same type of charges on the outer surface.\Inside, induced charge is – 50 nC and outside, +50 nC – 150 nC already present.
In the circuit given below, the charge in μC, on the capacitor having 5 μF is

Solution
Potential difference across the branch de is 6 V. Net capacitance of de branch is 2.1µF
So, q = CV
⇒ q =2.1 × 6 µC
⇒ q = 12.6 µ C
Potential across 3 µF capacitance is
V = \(\frac{12.6}{3}=4.2\) volt
Potential across 2 and 5 combination in parallel is 6 – 4.2 = 1.8 V
So, q' = (1.8)(5) = 9 µC
A parallel plate capacitor of plate area A and plate separation d is charged to potential difference V and then the battery is disconnected. A slab of dielectric constant K is then inserted between the plates of capacitor so as to fill the space between the plates. If Q, E and W denote respectively,the magnitude of charge on each plate electric field between the plates (after the slab is inserted), and work done on the system, in question, in the process of inserting the slab,then which is wrong ?
