A small conducting sphere of radius $r$ is lying concentrically inside a bigger hollow conducting sphere of radius $R.$ The bigger and smaller spheres are charged with $Q$ and $q (Q > q)$ and are insulated from each other. The potential difference between the spheres will be

  • A

    $\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}}\left( {\frac{q}{r} - \frac{Q}{R}} \right)$

  • B

    $\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}}\left( {\frac{Q}{R} + \frac{q}{r}} \right)$

  • C

    $\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}}\left( {\frac{q}{r} - \frac{q}{R}} \right)$

  • D

    $\frac{1}{{4\pi { \in _0}}}\left( {\frac{q}{R} - \frac{Q}{r}} \right)$
