Statement-1: A dielectric is inserted between the plates of an isolated fully-charged capacitor. The dielectric completely fills the space between the plates. The magnitude of electrostatic force on either metal plate decreases, as it was before the insertion of dielectric medium.
Statement-2: Due to insertion of dielectric slab in an isolated parallel plate capacitor (the dielectric completely fills the space between the plates), the electrostatic potential energy of the capacitor decreases.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true
Option D (Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true) is correct. The force increases, and the potential energy decreases.

Statement-1: When a battery is supplying power to a circuit, work done by electrostatic forces or electrolyte ions inside the battery is positive
Statement-2: Electric field is directed from positive to negative electrode inside a battery.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true
Option D (Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true) is correct because electrostatic forces do negative work on positive charges moving from the negative to the positive terminal inside the battery, and the electric field is directed from the positive to the negative electrode.

Assertion (A): In the electric field E=(4i^+4j^)N/C\mathbf{E}=(4 \hat{\mathbf{i}}+4 \hat{\mathbf{j}}) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{C}, electric potential at A(4 m,0)A(4 \mathrm{~m}, 0) is more than the electric potential at B(0,4 m)B(0,4 \mathrm{~m}).

Reason (R): Electric lines of forces always travel from higher potential to lower potential.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.
Option D is correct. The assertion is false because electric potential decreases in the direction of the electric field, and the reason is true because electric field lines point from higher to lower potential.

In a certain region of space with volume 0.2 m30.2 \mathrm{~m}^3, the electric potential is found to be 15 V15 \mathrm{~V} throughout. What is the electric field in this region?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Zero
Option D (Zero) is correct because the electric field is the negative gradient of the potential, and a constant potential implies zero electric field.

A parallel plate capacitor is charged and then battery is disconnected. The effect of increasing the plate separation on charge, potential and capacitance respectively is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Constant, increases, decreases
Option D is correct. Since the battery is disconnected, the charge remains constant. Increasing the plate separation decreases capacitance and increases potential.
