Two conentrics spherical shell of radius R and 2R having intial charges Qand 2Q respectively as shown . One closing the switch S charge flow form outer sphere to earth is nQ. Find n.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

On closing the switch potential of outer shell is zero
`(KQ)/(2R)+(KQ_1)/(2R)=0, Q_1=-Q` charge flow -3Q
