MCQ
The potential to which a conductor is raised, depends on
  • A
    The amount of charge
  • B
    Geometry and size of the conductor
  • Both $(a)$ and $(b)$
  • D
    Only on $(a)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both $(a)$ and $(b)$
c
(c) $V = Q/C$
$Q$ $=$ the amount of charge
$C$ $=$ capacitance which depends on geometry and size of conductor.
