Q163 / 170 · Manipal (MET) 2018 · Physics
A small sphere is charged to a potential of 50 V and a big hollow sphere is charged to potential of 100 V . Charge will flow from the smaller sphere to the bigger one when
- Correct answerAthe smaller one is placed inside the bigger one and connected by a wire
- Bthe bigger one is placed inside the smaller one and connected by means of a wire
- Cbigger one placed by the side of the smaller one and connected by a wire
- Dsmaller one placed by the side of the bigger one
Solution
The charge will flow from the outer surface of smaller one to bigger one only in case (1).
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
