Question (4)
QN0038978
  1. The diagrams below show regions of equipotentials.                                  

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

 

A positive charge, is moved from  to  in each diagram.

  • (A)

    In all the four cases the work done is the same

  • (B)

    Minimum work is required to move  in figure (i)

  • (C)

    Maximum work is required to move  in figure (ii)

  • (D)

    Maximum work is required to move  in figure (iii)

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

As the regions are of equipotentials, so Work done

is same in all the cases hence work - done will also be same in all the cases.

Question (6)
QN0038980

The electrostatic force between the metal plates of an isolated parallel plate capacitor  having a charge  and area A, is        

  • (A)

    independent of the distance between the plates

  • (B)

    linearly proportional to the distance between the plates

  • (C)

    inversely proportional to the distance between the plates

  • (D)

    proportional to the square root of the distance between the plates
