Question
A hollow sphere of radius 5 cm is charged such that the potential on its surface is 10 V. The potential at the cnetre of the sphere is
Options
A.zero
B.10 V
C.same at a point 5 cm away from the surface
D.same at a point 25 cm away from the surface
Solution
Electric potential at any point inside a hollow metallic sphre is constant. Therefore, if potential at surface is 10 V, potential at centre will also be 10 V.
