During a thunder storm, the movement of water molecules within the clouds creates friction, partially causing the bottom part of the clouds to become negatively charged. This implies that the bottom of the cloud and the ground act as a parallel plate capacitor. If the electric field between the cloud and ground exceeds the dielectric breakdown of the air (3 × 106 Vm–1), lightning will occur.

  1. If the bottom part of the cloud is 1000 m above the ground, determine the electric potential difference that exists between the cloud and ground.
  2. In a typical lightning phenomenon, around 25 C of electrons are transferred from cloud to ground. How much electrostatic potential energy is transferred to the ground?

Two plates A and B of a parallel plate capacitor are arranged in such a way, that the area of each plate is S = 5 × 10-3 m 2 and distance between them is d = 8.85 mm. Plate A has a positive charge q1 = 10-10 C and Plate B has charge q2 = + 2 × 10-10 C. Then the charge induced on the plate B due to the plate A be - (....... × 10-11 )C


Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.

A capacitor is a system of two conductors separated by an insulator. The two conductors have equal and opposite charges with a potential difference between them. The capacitance of a capacitor depends on the geometrical configuration (shape, size and separation) of the system and also on the nature of the insulator separating the two conductors. They are used to store charges. Like resistors, capacitors can be arranged in series or parallel or a combination of both to obtain the desired value of capacitance.
