A solid conducting sphere of radius `a` has a net positive charge `2Q`. A conducting spherical shell of inner radius `b` and outer radius `c` is concentric with the solid sphere and has a net charge `-Q`. The surface charge density on the inner and outer surfaces of the spherical shell will be

A

`-(2 Q )/(4 pi b^(2) ) , ( Q)/(4pi c^(2))`

B

`-(Q)/(4pi b^(2)),(Q)/(4pi c^(2))`

C

`0,(Q )/(4pi C^(2))`

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Surface charge density `(sigma ) = ("Charge ")/("Surface area ")`
` "So" sigma _("inner ") = (-2 Q) /( 4 pi b^(2)) `
` and sigma _(" onter ") =(Q)/(4 pi C^(2))`
