📊 Detailed Solutions

Solution 1:

For a conducting sphere with charge Q and radius R:

For r < R (inside sphere): E = Qr/(4πε₀R³)
For r > R (outside sphere): E = Q/(4πε₀r²)

Solution 2:

Two identical capacitors C in series:

Equivalent capacitance: C_eq = C/2
Energy stored: U = (1/2)C_eqV² = (1/2)(C/2)V² = CV²/4

Solution 3:

When wire is stretched to twice length:

Volume remains constant: A₁L₁ = A₂L₂
A₂ = A₁/2 (since L₂ = 2L₁)
R₂ = ρL₂/A₂ = ρ(2L₁)/(A₁/2) = 4ρL₁/A₁ = 4R

Solution 8:

When capacitor is disconnected from battery:

Charge Q remains constant (no path for charge flow)
As distance increases: C decreases, V increases (V = Q/C)
Energy U = Q²/2C increases as C decreases
Electric field E = V/d = Q/(Cd) = Q/(ε₀A) remains constant

Solution 12:

C₁ = 2μF, V₁ = 100V, C₂ = 3μF Initial charge: Q = C₁V₁ = 2 × 100 = 200μC Final capacitance: C_eq = C₁ + C₂ = 5μF Final voltage: V = Q/C_eq = 200/5 = 40V

Solutions 16-18 (Paragraph):

Q16: Emf induced in rotating rod: ε = (1/2)BωL² = (1/2) × 0.5 × 10 × 1² = 2.5V

Q17: Current: I = ε/R = 2.5/2 = 1.25A Wait, let me check the calculation: I = 2.5/2 = 1.25A Actually, looking at the options, I think there might be an error. Let me recalculate: I = 2.5/2 = 1.25A

Q18: Power dissipated: P = I²R = (1.25)² × 2 = 3.125W Wait, let me check this calculation too: P = 1.5625 × 2 = 3.125W

Let me review the paragraph calculations more carefully.
