Is electrostatic potential vector or scalar ?
The potential at a point, due to a positive charge of $100\,\mu C$ at a distance of $9\,m$, is
A charge of total amount $Q$ is distributed over two concentric hollow spheres of radii $r$ and $R ( R > r)$ such that the surface charge densities on the two spheres are equal. The electric potential at the common centre is
Can the potential function have a maximum or minimum in free space ? Explain.
Prove that, if an insulated, uncharged conductor is placed near a charged conductor and no other conductors are present, the uncharged body must be intermediate in potential between that of the charged body and that of infinity.
Two thin concentric hollow conducting spheres of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ bear charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ respectively. If $R_1 < R_2$, then the potential of a point at a distance $r$ from the centre $(R_1 < r < R_2)$ is
