Question

Aicharya · Accepted Answer

Charge on spherical conductor, $q=+\ln C$ $=10^{-9} \mathrm{C}$ Radius, $R=0.2 \mathrm{~m}$ Distance of point from spherical conductor, $r=0.5 \mathrm{~m}$ $\therefore$ Electric potential, $V=\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \cdot \frac{q}{r}$ $=9 \times 10^9 \times \frac{10^{-9}}{0.5}=\frac{9}{0.5}=18 \mathrm{~V}$
