Important Questions on Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance
The space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is completely filled in two ways. In the first case, it is filled with a slab of dielectric constant . In the second case, it is filled with two slabs of equal thickness and dielectric constants and respectively as shown in the figure. The capacitance of the capacitor is same in the two cases. Obtain the relationship between , and .





A sphere of radius has positive charge uniformly distributed on its surface. A small pellet of mass and charge is directed radially at the sphere. When the pellet is at a distance of 0.75 m from the centre of the sphere its speed is .
Determine the distance from the centre of the sphere at which the pellet will stop.

A parallel-plate capacitor consists of two identical metal plates. Two dielectric slabs having dielectric constants and are introduced in the space between two plates as shown below. Show that capacity of capacitor in the arrangement is given by
