Consider two conducting spheres of radii 
and 
with 
If the two are at the same potential, and the larger sphere has more charge than the smaller sphere, then.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Here, 
or 
Given, 
Larger sphere has more charge than the smaller sphere.
Now charge densities,
and 
or 
(using (i)a)
As 
therefore 
Charge density of smaller sphere is more than the charge density of larger sphere.
