Electrostatics Question 216

Question: Two spherical conductors B and C having equal radii and carrying equal charges in them repel each other with a force F when kept apart at some distance. A third spherical conductor having same radius as that of B but uncharged is brought in contact with B, then brought in contact with C and finally removed away from both. The new force of repulsion between B and C is [AIEEE 2004]

Options:

A) $ F/4 $

B) $ 3F/4 $

C) $ F/8 $

D) $ 3F/8 $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Initially $ F=k.\frac{Q^{2}}{r^{2}} $ (fig. A).

Finally when a third spherical conductor comes in contact alternately with B and C then removed, so charges on B and C are Q / 2 and 3Q / 4 respectively (fig. B) Now force $ F’=k.\frac{( \frac{Q}{2} )( \frac{3Q}{4} )}{r^{2}}=\frac{3}{8}F $
