NEET 2022 Physics Conductors MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
Two hollow conducting spheres of radii R₁ and R₂ (R₁ >> R₂) have equal charges. The potential would be:
A
equal on both the spheres
B
dependent on the material property of the sphere
C
more on bigger sphere
D
more on smaller sphere
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
The potential on a conducting sphere is given by V = kQ/R. For equal charges, the sphere with smaller radius will have a higher potential.
