  • question_answer
    Two conducting spheres of radii \[{{R}_{1}}\] and \[{{R}_{2}}\]having charges \[{{Q}_{1}}\] and \[{{Q}_{2}}\]respectively are connected to each other. There is

    A) no change in the energy of the system

    B) an increase in the energy of the system

    C) always a decrease in the energy of the system

    D) a decrease in the energy of the system unless \[{{Q}_{1}}{{R}_{2}}={{Q}_{2}}{{R}_{1}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] When\[\frac{{{Q}_{1}}}{{{R}_{1}}}-\frac{{{Q}_{2}}}{{{R}_{2}}}\]; current will flow ii connecting wire so that energy decreases in the form of head through the connecting wire
