Two uniformly large parallel thin plates having charge densities +straight sigma and –sigmaare kept in the X-Z plane at a distance 'd' apart. Sketch an equipotential surface due to electric field between the plates. If a particle of mass m and charge '-q' remains stationary between the plates, what is the magnitude and direction of this field? 


Equipotential surface between the plates due to the electric field is given by the figure shown below. We can see that, the equipotential surface is at a distance d/2 from either plate in X-Z plane.



Given, a particle of mass ‘m’ and charge ‘-q’ remains stationary in between the plates. For the negative charge,

i) weight mg acts, vertically downward

ii) electric force qE acts vertically upward.

So, mg = qE

, is acting vertically downwards (along –Y axis).

Two small identical electrical dipoles AB and CD, each of dipole moment 'p' are kept at an angle of 120o as shown in the figure. What is the resultant dipole moment of this combination? If this system is subjected to electric field (straight E with rightwards harpoon with barb upwards on top) directed along + X direction, what will be the magnitude and direction of the torque acting on this?

Figure shows two identical capacitors, C1 and C2, each of 1 μF capacitance connected to a battery of 6 V. Initially switch 'S' is closed. After sometime 'S' is left open and dielectric slabs of dielectric constant K = 3 are inserted to fill completely the space between the plates of the two capacitors. How will the (i) charge and (ii) potential difference between the plates of the capacitors be affected after the slabs are inserted?
