A point charge `+q` is placed at the centre of a conducting spherical shell of inner radius a and outer radius b. Find the charge appearing on the inner and outer surface of the shell.

A

The charge will still flow from the inner sphere to the conducting shell as inner sphere is still at higher potential

B

The charge will still flow from the inner sphere to the conducting shell as inner sphere is now at lower potential

C

Charge will now flow from outer shell to the inner sphere

D

No charge will flow now
