The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements, let's break down the problem step by step. ### Step 1: Understand Statement-1 Statement-1 claims that when two charged spheres are touched, the total charge is equal to 'h'. **Analysis**: - The total charge on the two spheres after they touch depends on their initial charges. If we denote the initial charges on the two spheres as \( Q_1 \) and \( Q_2 \), then the total charge after they are touched will be \( Q_1 + Q_2 \). - Since the problem does not provide any specific values for \( Q_1 \) and \( Q_2 \), we cannot conclude that the total charge equals 'h'. **Conclusion**: Statement-1 is incorrect because it lacks sufficient information about the initial charges. ### Step 2: Understand Statement-2 Statement-2 states that the flow of charge takes place until the potential equals. **Analysis**: - The flow of charge (current) occurs when there is a potential difference between two points. Charges will continue to flow until the potentials equalize, meaning that the potential difference becomes zero. - This is a well-established principle in electrostatics, where charge redistribution occurs until equilibrium is reached. **Conclusion**: Statement-2 is correct because it accurately describes the behavior of charges in the presence of a potential difference. ### Step 3: Final Evaluation Now that we have analyzed both statements: - Statement-1 is incorrect. - Statement-2 is correct. Thus, the correct conclusion is that Statement 1 is false while Statement 2 is true. ### Final Answer The correct option is that Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true. ---
