2. linearly proportional to the distance between the plates

3. proportional to the sqaure root of the distance between the plates

4. inversely proportional to the distance between the plates

Charges +q and –q are placed at points A and B, respectively; which are at a distance 2L apart, C is the midpoint between A and B. The work done in moving a charge +Q along the semicircle CRD is :

A parallel-plate capacitor of area A, plate separation d and capacitance C is filled with four dielectric materials having dielectric constants k₁, k₂, k₃ and k₄ as shown in the figure below. If a single dielectric material is to be used to have the same capacitance C in this capacitor, then its dielectric constant k is given by 

1.  $\mathrm{K}={\mathrm{k}}_1+{\mathrm{k}}_2+{\mathrm{k}}_3+3{\mathrm{k}}_4$

2.  $\mathrm{k}=\frac{2}{3}{\mathrm{k}}_4\left(\frac{{\mathrm{k}}_1}{{\mathrm{k}}_1+{\mathrm{K}}_4}+\frac{{\mathrm{k}}_2}{{\mathrm{k}}_2+{\mathrm{k}}_4}+\frac{{\mathrm{k}}_3}{{\mathrm{k}}_3+{\mathrm{k}}_4}\right)$

3.  $\frac{2}{\mathrm{k}}=\frac{3}{{\mathrm{k}}_1+{\mathrm{k}}_2+{\mathrm{k}}_3}+\frac{1}{{\mathrm{k}}_4}$

4.  $\frac{1}{\mathrm{k}}=\frac{1}{{\mathrm{k}}_1}+\frac{1}{{\mathrm{k}}_2}+\frac{1}{{\mathrm{k}}_3}+\frac{3}{2{\mathrm{k}}_4}$

A series combination of n1 capacitors, each of value C₁, is charged by a source of potential difference 4V. When another parallel combination of n₂ capacitors, each of value C₂, is charged by a source of potential difference V, it has the same (total) energy stored in it, as the first combination has. The value of C₂ , in terms of C₁, is then

1. $\frac{2C_1}{n_1{n}_2}$

2. $16\frac{n_2}{n_1}{C}_1$

3. $2\frac{n_2}{n_1}{C}_1$

4. $\frac{16C_1}{n_1{n}_2}$

Four point charges –Q, -q, 2q and 2Q are placed, one at each corner of the square. The relation between Q and q for which the potential at the center of the square is zero, is

A conducting sphere of radius R is given a charge Q. The electric potential and the electric field at the centre of the sphere respectively are:

4. Both are zero.

An electric dipole of moment p is placed in an electric field of intensity E. The dipole acquires a position such that the axis of the dipole makes an angle $\theta$ with the direction of the field. Assuming that the potential energy of the dipole to be zero when $\theta =90°$, the torque and the potential energy of the dipole will respectively be

4. $pE \cos \theta ,-pE \sin \theta$
