Ans 05:

We know = PE sin
If an electric dipole is rotated through an angled against the torque acting on it,
then small amount of work done is
dw = d = PE sin d
For rotating through on angle
w=

PE sin

900

w = PE cos 90
w = - PE cos

(a)

Hence proved

V 1 50
(Where V = 200 V for air capacitor V1 = 50 after insertion of a dielectric)
K=

(b)

For a parallel plate capacitor when air/vaccuum is in between the plates

A o
Co =
d
Since electric field inside a conducting stab is zero, hence electric field exist only
between the space (d-t) V = E0 (d t )
Where Eo is the electric field exist
between the plates
