Question:

If a charge spherical conductor of radius 10 cm has potential V at a point distance 5 cm. from its center, then the potential at a point distance 15 cm from the centre will be

Options:

$\frac{V}{3}$

$\frac{2V}{3}$

$\frac{3V}{2}$

$3V$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{2V}{3}$

Explanation:

$ V = \frac{kQ}{10}$

$ V'= \frac{kQ}{15} = \frac {2V}{3}$
