Assertion: The surface charge densities of two spherical conductors of different radii are equal. Then the electric field intensities near their surface are also equal. Reason: Surface charge density is equal to charge per unit area.

Two spheres of radii R1 and R2 have equal charge are joint together with a copper wire. If the potential on each sphere after they are separated to each other is V, then initial charge on any sphere was (k = 1/(4piin_(0))) -

Consider tow concentric conducting spheres of radii a & b (b gt a) . Inside sphere has a positive charge q_1 . What charge should be give to the ouer sphere so that potential of the inner sphere becomes zero ? How does the potentila varies between the two spheres & outside ?

Concentric metallic hollow spheres of radii R and 4R hold charges Q_1 and Q_2 respectively. Given that surface charge densities of the concentric spheres are equal, the potential difference V(R)- V(4R) is :

Two identical sphres, one positively charged and the other negativily charged are held d cm apart.If the magnitude of the charges on the two spheres are equal , find the electric potential at a point midway on the line joining the centres of the two spheres.

Equipotential spheres are drawn round a point charge. As we move away from charge will the spacing between two spheres having a constant potential difference decrease, increase or remain constant.

A solid conducting sphere of radius a is enclosed in a concentric shell of radius b gt a . The charge on the inner sphere is 3muC and on the conducting shell is -10muC . The potential difference between the conductors is V. If +10muC additional charge is given to the outer shell, the new potential difference is
