  • question_answer
    A hollow metallic sphere of radius R is given a charge Q. Then the potential at the centre is          [Orissa JEE 2005]

    A)            Zero                                         

    B)            \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{Q}{R}\]

    C)                    \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{2Q}{R}\]

    D)                                              \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{Q}{2R}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                 Potential V any where inside the hollow sphere, including the centre is \[V=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{Q}{r}\].
