A dielectric slab is a substance which does not allow

Case study question of Physics – Electrostatic potential and capacitance  Case study 3:- A dielectric slab is a substance which does not allow the flow of charges through it but permits them to exert electrostatic forces on one another. When a dielectric slab is placed between the plates, the field polarises the dielectric. This induce … Read more

This energy possessed by a system of charges by virtue

Case study question of Physics – Electrostatic potential and capacitance  Case study 2:- This energy possessed by a system of charges by virtue of their positions. When two like charges lie infinite distance apart, their potential energy is zero because no work has to be done in moving one charge at infinite distance from the … Read more

The potential at any observation point P of a static electric

Case study 1:- The potential at any observation point P of a static electric field is defined as the work done by the external agent (or negative of work done by electrostatic field) in slowly bringing a unit positive point charge from infinity to the observation point. Figure shows the potential variation along the line … Read more
