Question

Metallic spheres of radius 1 cm and 2 cm are given charges 10^-2 and5*10^-2, respectively if they are connected by a conducting wire the final charge on the smallest Sphere is

Open in App

Solution

Dear student, the charge on smaller sphere is 2*10^-2 C itself.

If the answer in your book is not that, then the answer key must be wrong.
This happens sometimes.Don't worry.

Hope this helps.
Good luck.
