Class 12 Physics Practice Paper – Chapter 2 Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance (Free PDF Download)

Introduction

Chapter 2 of Class 12 Physics, Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance, is one of the most crucial topics for board exams as well as competitive exams like CBSE, JEE Main, JEE Advanced, and NEET. After completing Chapter 1 on Electric Charges and Fields, students step into the world of potential, energy, and capacitors, which not only strengthens the conceptual foundation but also develops strong problem-solving skills.

At Bhautik Study, we understand that students often face difficulty in connecting theoretical concepts with practical numerical applications. That’s why we have designed carefully structured practice papers for this chapter. These papers include concept-based problems, derivations, numericals, and high-order thinking questions that mimic the exact style of board exams and competitive tests.

Electrostatic potential explains how work is done in moving a charge in an electric field, while capacitance introduces one of the most widely used devices in physics and electronics – the capacitor. From the potential due to a point charge and dipole to advanced topics like the energy stored in a capacitor, this chapter holds immense significance. Many derivations, such as the relation between electric field and potential, or the formula for capacitance of parallel plate capacitor, are considered as must-do derivations for exams.

Another strong reason why this chapter is important is its real-world connection. Capacitors are used in almost every electronic device – mobile phones, computers, and even power supply systems. Understanding the basics at the Class 12 level gives students a head start for engineering and applied science courses later.

At Bhautik Study, our approach is simple yet effective – provide students with practice papers of varying difficulty (Easy, Medium, and Hard) so they can gradually improve. The medium-level paper (linked below) is perfect for students who have already understood the basics and now want to test their preparation through standard-level questions. Later, solving harder versions will ensure that they are ready to handle tricky numericals and competitive exam-style problems.

If you are serious about scoring well, we recommend a strategy where you study the NCERT theory thoroughly, practice derivations, and then solve practice papers chapter-wise. This will not only boost your confidence but also highlight your weak areas so you can revise them before exams.

With Bhautik Study’s specially designed PDFs, you can practice in a structured way and move closer to your goal of mastering Class 12 Physics and securing a top rank in your exams.
