Question

Two hollow conducting spheres of radii R_1 and R_2(R_1>R_2) have equal charges. The potential would be [NEET 2022]

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. (a) Potential on the hollow conducting sphere of radius R due to charge Q is V= 14 _0 QR ⇒ V ∝ 1R [For same charge Q ] ⇒ V_1V_2= R_2R_1 Since, R_1>R_2 ∴ R_2R_1<1 p=16 10^-9C-m ∴ V_1V_2<1 ∴V_1<V_2 Hence, potential will more on smaller sphere.

$Two hollow conducting spheres of radii R_{1} and R_{2} (R_{1} > R_{2}) have equal charges. The potential would be [NEET 2022]$
