The correct option is C N13 times
Let the radius of small drop be r and big drop be R.
Capacitance of isolated spherical conductor is given by C=4πϵ0rSo, Capacitance of small drop of mercury is Cs=4πϵ0rCapacitance of bigger drop is Cb=4πϵ0R
The combined volume of the N drops is equal to the volume of bigger drop.
∴N×43πr3=43πR3
R=N13r
Thus, the capacitance of bigger drop is
Cb=N13Ca
Hence, option (c) is the correct answer.
