Two uniformly large parallel thin plates having charge densities +sigma and -sigma are kept in the X-Z plane at a distance 'd' apart. Sketch an equipotential surface due to electric field between the plates. IF a particle of mass m and charge -q remains stationary between the plates, what is the magnitude and direction of this field?

Assertion. Capacity of a parallel plate condenser remains unaffected on introduced a conducting or insulating slab between the plates. Reason. In both the cases, electric field intensity between the plates increases.

A parallel plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference V by a d.c. source. The capacitor is then disconnected from the source. If the distance between the plates is doubled, state with reason how the following will change. electric field between the plates

A particle of mass m and charge (-q) enters the region between the two charged plates initially moving along x-axis with speed v_x. The length of plate is L and an uniform electric field E is maintained between the plates. Show that the vertical deflection of the particle at the far edge of the plate is qEL^2//(2m v_x^2) .

A parallel plate capacitor, each with plate area A and separation d is charged to a potential difference V. The battery used to charge it is then disconnected. A dielectric slab if thickness d and dielectric constant K is now placed between the plates. what change, if any will take place in electric field intensity between the plates.

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 the capacitor so as to fill the space between the plates. If Q, E and W denote respectively, the magnitude of charge on each plate, the 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,

A parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates has a capacitance of 8 pF.What will be the capacitance if the distance between the plates is reduced by half and the space between them is filled with a substance of dielectric constant 5?

General instruction same as in chapter 1. Assertion: The electrostatic force between the plates of a charged isolated capacitro increases, when a dielectric fills whole space between the plates. Reason:The electric field between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor increases, when a dielectric fills the whole space between the plates.

The plates of a parallel plate capacitor have an area of 90 cm^2 each and are separated by 2.5 mm. The capacitor is charged by connecting it to a 400 V supply. (a) How much electrostatic energy is stored by the capacitor? (b) View this energy as stored in the electrostatic field between the plates, and obtain the energy per unit volume u. Hence arrive at a relation between u and the magnitude of electric field E between the plates.
