Two spherical conductors A and B of radii 1 mm and 2mm are separated by a distance of 5 cm and are uniformly charged. If the spheres are connected by a conducting wire then in equilibrium condition, the ratio of the magnitude of the electric fields at the surfaces of sphere A and B is:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
After connecting with conducting wire, let the charges on both spheres are q 1 & q 2 .
∴ 
= 
= 
∴ 
= 
. 
= 2 : 1
