If on the concentric hollow spheres of radii $r$ and $R$ $(R > r)$ the charge $Q$ is distributed such that their surface charge densities are the same,then the potential at their common centre is:

  • A
    $\frac{Q(R^2 + r^2)}{4\pi \varepsilon_0(R + r)}$
  • B
    $\frac{QR}{R + r}$
  • C
    Zero
  • D
    $\frac{Q(R + r)}{4\pi \varepsilon_0(R^2 + r^2)}$

Charge is uniformly distributed on the surface of a hollow hemisphere. Let $O$ and $A$ be two points on the base of the hemisphere,where $O$ is the center of the base and $A$ is a point between the center and the rim. Let $V_O$ and $V_A$ be the electric potentials at $O$ and $A$ respectively. Then,

$A$ long,hollow conducting cylinder is kept coaxially inside another long,hollow conducting cylinder of larger radius. Both the cylinders are initially electrically neutral.
