The potential to which a conductor is raised, depends on
- A the amount of charge
- B geometry and size of the conductor
- C Both (a) and (b)
- D None of the above
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Both (a) and (b)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
When we give charge to a conductor, then its potential increases. Potential, \(V=\frac{\text { Charge }(Q)}{\text { Capacitance }(C)}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad V=\frac{Q}{\varepsilon_{0} \frac{A}{d}} \quad\left[\because C=\frac{\varepsilon_{0} A}{d}\right]\)…
