A small conducting sphere of radius a, carrying a charge +Q, is placed inside an equal and oppositely charged conducting shell of radius b such that their centers coincide. Determine the potential at a point which is at a distance c from center such that a<c<b.
Potential outside the conducting sphere conducting sphere at distance c=KQc
Potential inside a conducting shell having charge −Q and radius b=−KQb
Now net potential at point c=KQc−KQb
