NEET Physics: Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance — MCQ Test 2

Q6. In a parallel combination of capacitors, why does each capacitor have the same potential difference across its plates?

Q7. A positively charged particle moves from a point of higher potential to a point of lower potential in an electrostatic field. What is the sign of the work done by the electric field?

Q8. A parallel plate capacitor with capacitance \( 250 \, \text{pF} \) has a dielectric (\( K = 4 \), thickness \( d/7 \)) inserted. What is the new capacitance? (Original separation \( d \)).

Q9. Two hollow spherical conductors of different radii are charged with the same amount of charge and then connected by a thin conducting wire. What happens to the charges on the conductors?

Q10. A spherical conductor of radius 35 cm has a charge of \( 14 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C} \). What is the electric field at 80 cm from the center? (Take \( \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \, \text{Nm}^2 \text{C}^{-2} \)).
