The lower plate of a parallel plate capacitor is supported on a rigid rod. The upper plate is suspended from one end of a balance. The two plates are joined together by a thin wire and subsequently disconnected. The balance is then counterpoised. Now a voltage $V = 5000\, volt$ is applied between the plates. The distance between the plates is $d =5\, mm$ and the area of each plate is $A = 100 cm^2.$ Then find out the additional mass placed to maintain balance.......$g$ [All the elements other than plates are massless and nonconducting] :-
