1. An homogeneous dielectric material is subjected to an electric field E. If a small cavity is made inside the material, the electric field intensity inside and outside the cavity are different.
Conductivity is reciprocal of resistivity. Since resistivity of metals is around 10-7 ohm-m, conductivity is about 107 ohm-1 m-1. So 105 is the nearest value.
6. In an hydrogen atom, an electron moves in the field of a proton. The stability of orbit requires equilibrium between coulomb's force and centrifugal force.
