2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
hard
$512$ identical drops of mercury are charged to a potential of $2\, V$ each. The drops are joined to form a single drop. The potential of this drop is ......... $V.$
A
$128$
B
$256$
C
$64$
D
$144$
(JEE MAIN-2021)
Solution
$Q =512 q$
Volume $_{i}=$ Volume $_{f}$
$512 \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}=\frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3}$
$2^{9} r ^{3}= R ^{3}$
$R =8 r$
$2=\frac{ kq }{ r }$
$V =\frac{ kQ }{ R }=\frac{ k 512 q }{8 r }$
$V =128$
