Questions  

A non-conducting sphere carries a charge uniformly throughout its volume of potential at the surface of the sphere is 10 volt, potential at its centre will be  

a
zero
b
5 volt
c
7.5 V
d
15 V

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Potential at a radial distance r (r≤R) is , V=Vs2(3-r2R2) At the centre, r=0, ∴V=32Vs=32×10V=15V.
