Two connectric spheres of radii R and r ...

Two connectric spheres of radii `R` and `r` have similar charges with equal surface charge densities `(sigam)`. The electric potential at their common centre is

A

`sigma//epsilon_(0)`

B

`(sigma)/(epsilon_(0)) (R-r)`

C

`(sigma)/(epsilon_(0)) (R+r)`

D

`(sigma)/(4pi epsilon_(0)) (R +r)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C


Potential at centre is same as surface
`:.v=(sigmaT)/(epsilon_(0)) +(sigmaR)/(epsilon_(0))`
