Three conducting spherical shells have charges `q,-2q` and `3q` as shown in figure. Find electric Potential at point P as shown in figure.

A

`kq(1/2r-1/r)`

B

`kq(1/R-1/r)`

C

`kq(1/(2R)-1/r)`

D

`(kq)/r-(k(2q))/r+(k_(3q))/(R)`
Here `=kq(1/R-1/r)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Potential P, `V_P=V_q-V_(-2q)+V_(3q)`
=(kq)/r-(k(2q))/r+(k_(3q))/(3R)`
Here `=kq(1/R-1/r)`
here `k=1/(4piepsilon_0)`
