2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
easy

A hollow metallic sphere of radius $R$ is given a charge $Q$. Then the potential at the centre is

A

Zero

B

$\frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}.\frac{Q}{R}$

C

$\frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}.\frac{{2Q}}{R}$

D

$\frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}.\frac{Q}{{2R}}$

Solution

(b) Potential $V$ any where inside the hollow sphere, including the centre is $V = \frac{1}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}\frac{Q}{r}$.
