(b) ${V_{inside}} = \frac{Q}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}R}}$ for $r \le R$ ....$(i)$
and ${V_{out}} = \frac{Q}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$ for $r \ge R$ ....$(ii)$
i.e. potential inside the hollow spherical shell is constant and outside varies according to $V \propto \frac{1}{r}$.

    A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ has spacing $d$ between two plates having area $A$. The region between the plates is filled with $N$ dielectric layers, parallel to its plates, each with thickness $\delta=\frac{ d }{ N }$. The dielectric constant of the $m ^{\text {th }}$ layer is $K _{ m }= K \left(1+\frac{ m }{ N }\right)$. For a very large $N \left(>10^3\right)$, the capacitance $C$ is $\alpha\left(\frac{ K \varepsilon_0 A }{ d \;ln 2}\right)$. The value of $\alpha$ will be. . . . . . . .
