A) 4 : 1
B) 1 : 2
C) 2 : 1
D) 1 : 4
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] By connecting two surfaces with the help of a conductor wire, we make the potential of each of the surfaces equal remembering that electric field at a point is inverse proportional to the distance. |
When the two conducting spheres are connected by a conducting wire, charge will flow from one sphere (having higher potential) to other (having lower potential) till both acquire the same potential. |
\[{{V}_{1}}=\frac{kq}{{{r}_{1}}},{{V}_{2}}=\frac{kq}{{{r}_{2}}}\Rightarrow {{v}_{1}}={{v}_{2}}\] |
(according to question) |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[{{r}_{2}}=2{{r}_{1}},E=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{q}{{{r}^{2}}}\] |
So, \[\frac{{{E}_{1}}}{{{E}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{r}_{2}}}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}=4:1\] |
