Three charges \(Q\), \(+q \) and \(+q \) are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side \(l\) as shown in the figure. If the net electrostatic energy of the system is zero, then \(Q\) is equal to:

A thin spherical conducting shell of radius \(R\) has a charge \(q\). Another charge \(Q\) is placed at the centre of the shell. The electrostatic potential at a point \(P\) which is at a distance \(\frac{R}{2}\) from the centre of the shell is:

A charge of \(10\) e.s.u. is placed at a distance of \(2\) cm from a charge of \(40\) e.s.u. and \(4\) cm from another charge of \(20\) e.s.u. The potential energy of the charge \(10\) e.s.u. is: (in ergs) 

In a certain charge distribution, all points having zero potential can be joined by a circle \(S\). Points inside \(S\) have positive potential, and points outside \(S\) have a negative potential. A positive charge, which is free to move, is placed inside \(S\). What is the correct statement about \(S\):

Two charges \(q_1\) and \(q_2\) are placed \(30\) cm apart, as shown in the figure. A third charge \(q_3\) 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 \(\frac{q_{3}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} k\), where \(k\) is:

If the dielectric constant and dielectric strength be denoted by \(k\) and \(x\) respectively, then a material suitable for use as a dielectric in a capacitor must have:

3. low \(k\) and low \(x\).
4. low \(k\) and high \(x\).

Four capacitors each of capacity \(3~\mu\text{F}\) are connected as shown in the adjoining figure. The ratio of equivalent capacitance between \(A\) and \(B\) and between \(A\) and \(C\) will be:
