(a) A charge +Q is placed on a large spherical conducting shell of radius R. Another small conducting sphere of radius r carrying charge 'q' is introduced inside the large shell and is placed at its centre. Find the potential difference between two points, one lying on the sphere and the other on the shell.
(b) How would the charge between the two flow if they are connected by a conducting wire ? Name the device which works on this fact.
