A) V
B) 2V
C) -2V
D) 4V
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
As given in the first condition : Both conducting spheres are shown. \[{{V}_{in}}-{{V}_{out}}=\left( \frac{kQ}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)-\left( \frac{kQ}{{{r}_{2}}} \right)\] \[=kQ\left( \frac{1}{{{r}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{r}_{2}}} \right)=V\] In the second condition : Shell is now given charge -4Q. \[{{V}_{in}}-{{V}_{out}}=\left( \frac{kQ}{{{r}_{1}}}-\frac{4kQ}{{{r}_{2}}} \right)-\left( \frac{kQ}{{{r}_{2}}}-\frac{4kQ}{{{r}_{2}}} \right)\] \[=\frac{kQ}{{{r}_{1}}}-\frac{kQ}{{{r}_{2}}}\] \[=kQ\left( \frac{1}{{{r}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{r}_{2}}} \right)=V\] Hence, we also obtain that potential difference does not depend on charge of outer sphere. \[\therefore \] P.d. remains sameYou need to login to perform this action.
