    A hollow metal sphere of radius 5 cm is charged such that the potential on its surface is 10 V. The potential at a distance of 2 cm from the centre of sphere is

    A)  zero                                     

    B)  10 V

    C)  4V                                         

    D)  5V

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Inside the conducting charged sphere electric field is zero and potential remains constant at all points and equals to the potential at the surface. Hence, the potential at a distance of \[2\text{ }cm\]from the centre of sphere is \[10V\].
