Questions  

A metallic spherical shell has an inner radius R1 and outer radius R2 . A charge Q is placed at the centre of the spherical cavity. What will be surface charge density on (i) the inner surface, and (ii) the outer surface

a
−Q4πR12 and Q4πR22
b
Q4πR22 and −Q4πR12
c
Q4πR12 and Q4πR22
d
−Q4πR12 and −Q4πR22

detailed solution

Correct option is A

The induced charge on the inner surface is -Q and outer surface is +Q, hence the correct answer is −Q4πR12 andQ4πR22 .
