The potential at a distance `R//2` from the centre of a conducting sphere of radius `R` will be

A

`0`

B

`(Q)/(8pi epsilon_(0)R)`

C

`(Q)/(4pi epsilon_(0)R)`

D

`(Q)/(2pi epsilon_(0)R)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Potential inside the conducting sphere is same as that of surface i.e., `(Q)/(4pi epsilon_(0)R)`
