About Electrostatics
Electrostatics describes forces between charges through Coulomb's law, electric fields and field intensity, then uses electric potential to measure energy per unit charge. Capacitors store charge and electrical energy, with capacitance depending on geometry and dielectric material, not simply on the amount of charge present.

A charge Q has to be divided between two solid spheres of radius 'R' which are at distance d from each other (d >> R). What should be the value of charge, which we should place on spheres, so that the force of attraction between them is maximum?
Let Q denote charge, V denote potential difference, and U denote stored energy, or these quantities, capacitors in parallel must have the same:
In a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance C, a metal sheet is inserted between the plates, parallel to them. The thickness of the sheet is half of the separation between the plates. The capacitance now becomes:
A point charge q is placed at a distance r from the center of an uncharged conducting sphere of radius R (R << r). The potential at any point on the sphere is:
Three charges are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of sides 'a'. The force experienced by the charge placed at the vertex A in a direction normal to BC is :
