Question

In a hollow spherical shell potential $(V)$ changes with respect to distance $(r)$ from centre

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$(V_{\text{inside }}=\frac{Q}{4\pi {\epsilon }_{0}R}$ for $r\le R\dots$.(i)
and $V_{\text{out }}=\frac{Q}{4\pi {\epsilon }_{0}r}$ for $r\ge R$....(ii)
i.e. potential inside the hollow spherical shell is constant and outside varies according to $V\propto \frac{1}{r}$
