A conductor PQ as shown in figure is charged.
and σ D are surface charge densities of points
and D respectively

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Sharp surfaces have less area A and surface charge density
Sharp surfaces will have high charge density.
Surface at A is sharpest.
As radius of C is less than B. So, C is more sharp than B.
