$A$ conducting sphere $S_1$ of radius $r_1 = 3 \text{ cm}$ is connected by a conducting wire to another conducting sphere $S_2$ of radius $r_2 = 2 \text{ cm}$. Before they are connected,$S_1$ carries a charge of $10 \text{ units}$. The electric potential at a point which is at a distance $4 \text{ cm}$ from the centre of $S_1$ and a distance $3 \text{ cm}$ from the centre of $S_2$ is:
