    Two conducting spheres of radii 5 cm and 10 cm are given a charge of \[15\mu C\] each. After the two spheres are joined by a conducting wire, the charge on the smaller sphere is [AMU (Engg.) 2001]

    A)            \[5\ \mu C\]                         

    B)            \[10\mu C\]

    C)            \[15\mu C\]                          

    D)            \[20\mu C\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Charge on smaller sphere = Total charge \[\left( \frac{{{r}_{1}}}{{{r}_{1}}+{{r}_{2}}} \right)=30\,\left( \frac{5}{5+10} \right)=10\mu C\]
