Two charges placed in air repel each other by a force of ${10^{ - 4}}\,N$. When oil is introduced between the charges, the force becomes $2.5 \times {10^{ - 5}}\,N$. The dielectric constant of oil is

Two small conducting spheres of equal radius have charges $ + 10\,\mu C$ and $ - 20\,\mu C$ respectively and placed at a distance $R$ from each other experience force ${F_1}$. If they are brought in contact and separated to the same distance, they experience force ${F_2}$. The ratio of ${F_1}$ to ${F_2}$ is

The unit of electric permittivity is

Three point charges of magnitude $5 \mu C , 0.16 \mu C$ and $0.3 \mu C$ are located at the vertices $A , B , C$ of a right angled triangle whose sides are $AB =3\,cm$, $BC =3 \sqrt{2}\,cm$ and $CA =3\,cm$ and point $A$ is the right angle corner. Charge at point $A$ experiences

$N$ of electrostatic force due to the other two charges.

Write limitation of Coulomb’s law.

Two charges are at a distance $‘d’$ apart. If a copper plate (conducting medium) of thickness $\frac{d}{2}$ is placed between them, the effective force will be
