A capacitor is charged with a battery and energy stored is U. After disconnecting the battery another capacitor of the same capacity is connected in parallel with it. The energy stored in each capacitor is:
1. U/2
2. U/4
3. 4 U
4. 2 U
If identical charges (–q) are placed at each corner of a cube of side 'b' then the electrical potential energy of charge (+q) which is placed at centre of the cube will be:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Two charges q1 and q2 are placed 30 cm apart, as shown in the figure. A third charge q3 is moved along the arc of a circle of radius 40 cm from C to D. The change in the potential energy of the system is , where k is:
.
1. 8q2
2. 6q2
3. 8q1
4. 6q1
As per this diagram, a point charge \(\mathrm{+q}\) is placed at the origin \(\mathrm{O}.\) Work done in taking another point charge \(\mathrm{-Q}\) from the point \(\mathrm{A},\) coordinates \((\mathrm{0,a}),\) to another point \(\mathrm{B},\) coordinates \((\mathrm{a,0}),\) along the straight path \(\mathrm{AB}\) is:
1. | \( \left(\frac{-\mathrm{qQ}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{1}{\mathrm{a}^2}\right) \sqrt{2} \mathrm{a}\) | 2. | zero |
3. | \( \left(\frac{\mathrm{qQ}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{1}{\mathrm{a}^2}\right) \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \) | 4. | \( \left(\frac{\mathrm{qQ}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{1}{\mathrm{a}^2}\right) \sqrt{2} \mathrm{a}\) |
