Electrostatics Question 394

Question: If a charged spherical conductor of radius 10cm has potential V at a point distant 5cm from its centre, then the potential at a point distant 15cm from the centre will be [SCRA 1998; JIPMER 2001, 02]

Options:

A) 13V

B) 23V

C) 32V

D) 3V

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

Potential inside the sphere will be same as that on its surface i.e.

V=Vsurface=q10statvolt ,

Vout=q15statvolt

VoutV=23

therefore Vout=23V
