To find the potential at the common center of two concentric conducting spheres with the same surface charge density, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Relationship Between Charges Given that the surface charge densities on both spheres are the same, we can express this mathematically. The surface charge density (σ) is given by: \[ \sigma = \frac{q_1}{4\pi R_1^2} = \frac{q_2}{4\pi R_2^2} \] ...
