Two hollow conducting spheres of radii R1 and R2 (R1 >> R2) have equal charges. The potential would be
- AMore on bigger sphere
- BMore on smaller sphere
- CEqual on both the spheres
- DDependent on the material property of the sphere
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
Potential of conducting hollow sphere $ = {{KQ} \over R}$
Now, Q = same
$$ \Rightarrow V \propto {1 \over R} \Rightarrow $$ more the radius less will be the potential.
$\Rightarrow$ Hence potential would be more on smaller sphere.
