Two conducing concentric hollow spheres of radii a and 2a respectively are shown in the diagram.  The inner shell has net charge Q on its surface.  The outer shell is neutral.  If the outer shell is connected to the earth the heat generated through the connecting wire is
 

a
Zero
b
14π∈0.Q22a
c
14π∈0.Q24a
d
14π∈0.Q2a

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Outside energy =14π∈0Q22×2a  will become zero as the shell is earthed.  This energy appears as heat
