A hollow metal sphere of radius \(15 \mathrm{~cm}\) is charged such that potential on its surface is \(20 \mathrm{~V}\). Then, the potential at the centre of sphere is
- A 0 V
- B 20 V
- C 10 V
- D 15 V
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 20 V
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Radius of hollow metallic sphere, \(R=15 \mathrm{~cm}\) Potential on the surface, \(V=20 \mathrm{~V}\). For a hollow metallic sphere, there is no field inside the sphere but the potential is same everywhere. \(\therefore\) Potential at the centre is also \(20 \mathrm{~V}\).
