MCQ

Equal charges are given to two spheres of different radii. The potential will

✓
Be more on the smaller sphere
B
Be more on the bigger sphere
C
Be equal on both the spheres
D
Depend on the nature of the materials of the spheres

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

Be more on the smaller sphere

a
(a) $V = \frac{{kq}}{R}$ i.e. $V \propto \frac{1}{R}$
Potential on smaller sphere will be more.
