In a meter bridge experiment resistances are connected as shown in the figure. Initially resistance P = 4 $$\Omega $$ and the neutral point N is at 60 cm from A. Now an unknown resistance R is connected in series to P and the new position of the neutral point is at 80 cm from A. The value of unknown resistance R is :

A combination of parallel plate capacitors is maintained at a certain potential difference.



When a 3 mm thick slab is introduced between all the plates, in order to maintain the same potential difference, the distance between the plates is increased by 2.4 mm. Find the dielectric constant of the slab.

Four closed surfaces and corresponding charge distributions are shown below.



Let the respective electric fluxes through the surfaces be $${\Phi _1},$$ $${\Phi _2},$$ $${\Phi _3}$$ and $${\Phi _4}$$. Then :
