Question

1.) In an electrostatic situation, which of the following statements about a conductor is INCORRECT?

2) A capacitor C, a resistor R and a battery with EMF are connected in series to charge the capacitor. In order to increase the charging speed, you need to

a) increase R

b) decrease R

c) decrease EMF

d) increase EMF

a) The electric field is perpendicular to the surface of conductor. b The electric field is tangent to the surface of conductor. c) The conductor has equal potential at all points in it. d) The electric field inside the conductor is zero.

Explanation / Answer

1)

Ans :- b) the electric field is tangent to the surface of the conductor.

2)

Ans : increase R

Explanation :- Current I = V0/R as per OHMs law: V = IR

Charge on capacitor Q = CV = CIR
