$A$ fully charged capacitor has a capacitance $C$. It is discharged through a small coil of resistance wire embedded in a thermally insulated block of specific heat capacity $s$ and mass $m$. If the temperature of the block is raised by $\Delta T$,the potential difference $V$ across the capacitor is

If the potential of $A$ is $10\,V$,then the potential of $B$ is

$A$ capacitor $C_1 = 1\,\mu F$ can withstand a maximum voltage of $V_1 = 6\,kV$,and a capacitor $C_2 = 3\,\mu F$ can withstand a maximum voltage of $V_2 = 4\,kV$. If these two capacitors are connected in series,what is the maximum voltage (in $kV$) that can be applied to the combination?

Two capacitors of equal capacitance $(C_1 = C_2)$ are shown in the figure. Initially,while the switch $S$ is open,one of the capacitors is uncharged and the other carries charge $Q_0$. The energy stored in the charged capacitor is $U_0$. After the switch is closed,the capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2$ carry charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$,respectively; the voltages across the capacitors are $V_1$ and $V_2$; and the energies stored in the capacitors are $U_1$ and $U_2$. Which of the following statements is $INCORRECT$?

If a capacitor of capacitance $100 \mu F$ is charged at a steady rate of $100 \mu C s^{-1}$,then the time taken to produce a potential difference of $100 \ V$ between the capacitor plates is (in $s$)
