Two large conduction spheres carrying charges `Q_(1)` and `Q_(2)` are brought close to each other. Is the magnitude of the force between them exactly given by `Q_(1)Q_(2)//4piepsilon_(0)r^(2)`. Where r is the distance between their centers.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Two large conducting sphere behave as point charge. Whole charge on the surface of conducting sphere seems to be at the centre of sphere.

`F=1/(4piepsilon_0)(Q_1Q_2)/r^2`
