Two spherical conductors $A$ and $B$ of radius $a$ and $b (b > a)$ are placed in air concentrically $B$ is given charge $+ Q$ coulomb and $A$ is grounded. The equivalent capacitance of these is

  • A

    $4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\frac{{ab}}{{b - a}}$

  • B

    $4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\,(a + b)$

  • C

    $4\pi {\varepsilon _0}b$

  • D

    $4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\frac{{{b^2}}}{{b - a}}$
