MCQ
The potential to which a conductor is raised, depends on
- AThe amount of charge
- BGeometry and size of the conductor
- ✓Both $(a)$ and $(b)$
- DOnly 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.
(c) $V = Q/C$
$Q$ $=$ the amount of charge
$C$ $=$ capacitance which depends on geometry and size of conductor.
