Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
A, D
a. `C=4piepsilon_0R` `=(1/(9xx10^9))(2)` b. Maximum electric field on the surface of sphereical conductor is `E=1/(4piepsilon_0)q/R^2` This should not exceed `10^6N//C` `:. E_max=1/(4piepsilon_0) q_max/R^2=10^6` `impliesq_max=(4piepsilon_0)R^2(10^6)` `=((1)/(9xx10^9))(2)^2(10^6)` `=4.4xx10^-4C`
