For the situation shown in the figure below, mark out the correct statement

829-169

  • A

    Potential of the conductor is $\frac{{ - q}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\left( {d + R} \right)}}$

  • B

    Potential of the conductor is $\frac{q}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}d}}$

  • C

    Potential of the conductor can’t be determined as nature of distribution of induced charges is not known

  • D

    Potential at point $B$ due to induced charges is $\frac{{ - qR}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\left( {d + R} \right)d}}$
