A metal sphere A of radius a is charged to potential V. What will be its potential if it is enclosed by a spherical conducting shell B of radius b and the two are connected by a wire?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The potential will be Va/b

Explanation:

So Let sphere A charged Q to potential V.

so, V= KQ/a. ....(1

Thus, spherical shell B is connected to the sphere A by a wire, so all charge always reside on the outer surface.

therefore, potential will be ,

V ′ = KQ/b = Va/b... That is from .....(1), KQ=Va]
