Question

A spherical conductor of radius $2 R$ has a spherical cavity of radius $\frac{R}{2}$ . The cavity does not enclose the centre of sphere. Charges $Q_{1}$ and $Q_{2}$ are placed as shown in figure, $Q_{2}$ is at the centre of cavity. An additional charges $Q_{3}$ is given to the sphere.

The potential of the sphere is

\frac{K Q_{1}}{3 R} + \frac{K (Q_{2} + Q_{3})}{2 R}

The potential inside the cavity at a distance

r (r < \frac{R}{2})

from the centre of cavity is

\frac{K Q_{2}}{r} + \frac{5 K Q_{1}}{6 R} - \frac{3 K Q_{2}}{2 R}

Solution

The correct option is A The potential of the sphere is $\frac{K Q_{1}}{3 R} + \frac{K (Q_{2} + Q_{3})}{2 R}$

A spherical conductor $=$ $2 R$ radius.
radius $= \frac{R}{2}$
Cavity $= Q_{1}$ and $Q_{2}$
Potential $= \frac{{K Q}_{1}}{3 R} + \frac{K (Q_{1} + Q_{2})}{2 R}$
