Q. There are two concentric conducting shells. The potential of outer shell is $10 V$ and that of inner shell is $15 V$ . If the outer shell is grounded, the potential of inner shell becomes/remains

25 V

15 V

10 V

5 V

$V_{i} = V_{outer} + V_{due to itself}$
$\Rightarrow 15 = 10 + V_{due to itself}$
$V_{due to itself} = 5 V$
