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

  1. A 0 V
  2. B 20 V
  3. C 10 V
  4. D 15 V
Verified Solution

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 \(20 \mathrm{~V}\).
