  94. Sir when we apply nodal analysis we take the charge of the isolated conductor 0 but if the plates making isolated conductor contain initially some charge then how we will do nodal analysis
    7 years ago by Anurag Dalmia
    Ans 1 ->
    The basic concept behind application of Nodal Analysis is conservation of charge & for this to be possible system must be isolated, in order to write the equation we apply Initial charge = Final charge, if initially conductors of isolated system is neutral then only we substitute value of Initial Charge=0 otherwise whatever value of charged isolated system is given , we need to substitute that value

We have to find the equivalent capacitance one with water and then with air then using the energy formula we will evaluate the potential energy ...after that we will find the force by taking the derivative of potential energy and equate it to pgh to find the height. Please check my solution .and correct me if I'm not doing it correctly with due respect..... Tathagat. Ps the answer generated by my solution does not match the answer generated by the solution above .

  112. why charge goes out if electric field exceeds breaking strength.
    8 years ago by hemanth goud
    Ans 1 ->
    because at that strength charge goes out from the body because that force start to make ions in the surrounding medium
    8 years ago by Abhijeet Shukla
    Ans 2 ->
    dielectric strength or breaking strength as u call it is the max value of electric field which a medium can withstand, after attaining this much electric field, the medium breaks down or as has been said above ions are made. and hence the electric discharge through the medium.
    8 years ago by ANURAG KAUSHIK

    It will be 20+x as the potential drop across the the battery should be 20 v.So 20+x -x=20v satisfies the theory.

    Since the middle potential will always be 50 volt no matter what the arrangement of the lower figure.Since it is independent of lower structure the node can be isolated.

    9 years ago by sudeep khare
    Ans 1 ->
    If we take electric field due to both plates then electric field due to individual plate will be sigma/2(epsiolon o) so the result will remain the same... In above case we are using the result of net electric field just outside a metal plate which includes all fields...

    9 years ago by sudeep khare
    Ans 1 ->
    Due to charge on outer cylinder there is no electric field inside it....you can see the respective module of electric field due to hollow cylinder to understand this...

  156. Is the capacitance of a conductor placed in vacuum is infinity?
    9 years ago by sudeep khare
    Ans 1 ->
    No. When a conductor is placed in vacuum the capacity to which it can be charged can be taken infinity if conductor metal strength is taken infinite... whereas the capacitance of body will be finite as it is the ratio of charge to potential difference of body wrt the reference... like a conducting sphere has capacitance 4(pi)(epsilon 0)R when placed in vacuum... but it can be charged to any extent depending upon its potential as in vacuum no breakdown takes place...

    9 years ago by Vineet Chatterjee
    Ans 1 ->
    From one extreme we have calculated the time to fill the capacitor i.e. the time from extreme to mean position which is one quarter of the time period of whole motion when the slab reaches its initial position after one complete oscillation thats why we multiply it with 4...
