Sample questions

Question 1

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with air as medium is 6 \mu F. With the introduction of a dielectric medium, the capacitance becomes 30 \mu F. The permittivity of the medium is : (\epsilon_0 = 8.85\times10^{-12}\ C^{2}\ N^{-1}\ m^{-2})

Question 2

A short electric dipole has a dipole moment of 16\times10^{-9} C m. The electric potential due to the dipole at a point at a distance of 0.6 m from the centre of the dipole, situated on a line making an angle of 60° with the dipole axis is : \left(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} = 9\times10^{9}\ N\ m^{2}/C^{2}\right)

Question 3

Three capacitors C_1, C_2, C_3 are connected in series. Their equivalent capacitance is C_{eq}. If C_1 = 1 \text{ \mu F}, C_2 = 2 \text{ \mu F}, and C_3 = 3 \text{ \mu F}, then C_{eq} is:
