Numerical Problems on Electric Intensity Due to Charged Sphere

Science > Physics > Electrostatics > Electric Intensity Due to Charged Sphere In this article, we shall study to solve problems to find electric intensity at a point due to a charged sphere. Example – 01: A charge of 0.002 µC is given to an isolated conducting sphere of radius 0.5 m. Calculate the electric […]

Dielectrics

Science > Physics > Electrostatics > Dielectrics In this article, we shall study dielectric materials (dielectrics), their working and types. Dielectrics are non-conducting substances. In these materials, free-moving electrons are not present. Thus there is no question of the movement of charge. When the dielectric material is kept in an external electric field, a dipole […]
