Out of two copper spheres of the same size,$x$ is hollow while $y$ is solid. If they are charged at the same potential,what can be said about the charges on them?

Consider three concentric metal shells $A$,$B$,and $C$ with radii $a$,$b$,and $c$ respectively,as shown in the figure $(a < b < c)$. Their surface charge densities are $\sigma$,$-\sigma$,and $\sigma$ respectively. Calculate the electric potential on the surface of shell $A$.

The variation of electrostatic potential $V$ with radial distance $r$ from the centre of a positively charged metallic thin shell of radius $R$ is given by the graph:

The electric charges $+2q$, $+2q$, $-2q$ and $-2q$ are placed at the corners of a square of side $2L$ as shown in the figure. The electric potential at point $A$, midway between the two charges $+2q$ and $+2q$, is $(\epsilon_0 = \text{permittivity of free space})$

Charges of $2 \mu C$ and $-3 \mu C$ are placed at two points $A$ and $B$ separated by a distance of $1 \ m$. The distance of the point from $A$ where the net potential is zero is: (in $m$)
