What is polarisation ?
A source of potential difference $V$ is connected to the combination of two identical capacitors as shown in the figure. When key ' $K$ ' is closed, the total energy stored across the combination is $E _{1}$. Now key ' $K$ ' is opened and dielectric of dielectric constant 5 is introduced between the plates of the capacitors. The total energy stored across the combination is now $E _{2}$. The ratio $E _{1} / E _{2}$ will be :
The capacity of a parallel plate condenser is $10\,\mu F$ without dielectric. Dielectric of constant $2$ is used to fill half the distance between the plates, the new capacitance in $\mu F$ is
The radii of the inner and outer spheres of a condenser are $9\,cm$ and $10\,cm$ respectively. If the dielectric constant of the medium between the two spheres is $6$ and charge on the inner sphere is $18 \times {10^{ - 9}}\;coulomb$, then the potential of inner sphere will be, if the outer sphere is earthed........$volts$
A parallel plate capacitor having capacitance $12\, pF$ is charged by a battery to a potential difference of $10\, V$ between its plates. The charging battery is now disconnected and a porcelain slab of dielectric constant $6.5$ is slipped between the plates. The work done by the capacitor on the slab is.......$pJ$
The potential gradient at which the dielectric of a condenser just gets punctured is called
