Consider two charged metallic spheresS1andS2of radiiR1andR2,respectively. The electric fieldsE1(onS1) andE2(onS2) on their surfaces are such thatE1E2=R1R2.Then the ratioV1(onS1)/V2(onS2) of the electrostatic potentials on each sphere is:

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Given,E1E2=R1R2
Then ratio of potential would be,V1V2=E1R1E2R2=R1R2×R1R2=R1R22
