MCQ
Two thin wire rings each having a radius R are placed at a distance d apart with their axes coinciding. The charges on the two rings are +q and -q. The potential difference between the centres of the two rings is
  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\frac{Q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0}\left[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2+d^2}}\right]$
  • C
    $\frac{Q R}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 d^2}$
  • $\frac{Q}{2 \pi \varepsilon_0}\left[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2+d^2}}\right]$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{Q}{2 \pi \varepsilon_0}\left[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2+d^2}}\right]$
(d) $\frac{Q}{2 \pi \varepsilon_0}\left[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2+d^2}}\right]$
