Q47 / 54 · JEE Advanced 2020 (Paper 2) · Physics
Two identical non-conducting solid spheres of same mass and charge are suspended in air from a common point by two non-conducting, massless strings of same length. At equilibrium, the angle between the strings is . The spheres are now immersed in a dielectric liquid of density and dielectric constant . If the angle between the strings remains the same after the immersion, then
- Correct answerAelectric force between the spheres remains unchanged
- Belectric force between the spheres reduces
- Correct answerCmass density of the spheres is
- Dthe tension in the strings holding the spheres remains unchanged
Solution

Divide,
As force between two charged bodies doesn't depend upon medium. Hence, the force between them remains same because the distance spheres is same.
When it is submerged in liquid then
Divide,
Equating (1) & (2)
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'A', 'C'.
