The electrostatic potential at a point on the surface of a charged spherical conducting shell of radius 10 cm is 120 V. The electric potential at a distance of 5 cm from the centre of the shell is: |
Zero 30 V 60 V 120 V |
120 V |
The correct answer is Option (4) → 120 V Since, the point of interest (5cm from the center) is inside the conducting shell, the potential at that point will be same as the potential at the surface of the shell. $V(5cm)=120V$ |
