  • A
    $(\cos \alpha / \cos \beta)^2$
  • B
    $(\cos \beta / \cos \alpha)^2$
  • C
    $(\sin \alpha / \sin \beta)^2$
  • D

$A$ body of mass $1 \,g$ and carrying a charge $10^{-8} \,C$ passes through two points $P$ and $Q$. $P$ and $Q$ are at electric potentials $600 \,V$ and $0 \,V$, respectively. The velocity of the body at $Q$ is $20 \,cm/s$. Its velocity in $m/s$ at $P$ is:

While working on a physics project at a school physics lab,you require a $4 \,\mu F$ capacitor in a circuit across a potential difference of $1 \,kV$. Unfortunately,$4 \,\mu F$ capacitors are out of stock in your lab,but $2 \,\mu F$ capacitors which can withstand a potential difference of $400 \,V$ are available in plenty. If you decide to use the $2 \,\mu F$ capacitors in place of the $4 \,\mu F$ capacitor,what is the minimum number of capacitors required?

For the circuit shown,which of the following statements is true?

$A$ parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ is connected to a battery and charged to a potential difference $V$. Another capacitor of capacitance $3C$ is similarly charged to a potential difference $3V$. The charging battery is then disconnected and the capacitors are connected in parallel to each other in such a way that the positive terminal of one is connected to the negative terminal of the other. The final energy of the configuration is
