The electric susceptibility 𝝌𝒆 (= 𝜺𝒓 − 𝟏) of a dielectric, measures the
sensitivity of the material to an electric field.
17. A potential difference Vo is applied to a mercury column in a cylindrical
container. The mercury is now poured into another cylindrical container
of half the radius and the same potential difference Vo applied across
the ends. As a result of this change of space, the resistance will be
increased:
A. 2 times
B. 4 times
C. 8 times
D. 16 times
18. To measure the dissipating factor of a capacitor the instrument used is
A. Campbell bridge
B. Schering bridge
C. Galvanometer
D. Potentiometer
19. On equipotential surface the electric field is
A. Infinite
B. Zero
C. Parallel to the surface
D. Perpendicular to the surface
Equipotential lines are always perpendicular to the electric field.
20. Two conducting plates are inclined at an angle 30° to each other with a
point charge between them. The number of image charges is
A. 12
B. 11
C. 6
D. 5
E. 3
When a point charge located between two paralleled conducting
planes, the number of image charges goes to infinite. When a point
charge located between two intersecting conducting plane forming a θ
degree if 360/θ=n, the number of image charges is n-1.
21. The capacitance of a capacitor filled by a linear dielectric is independent
of the charge on the plates and the potential difference between the
plates.
A. True
B. False
C. True only if charge is positive
D. False only if charge is positive
