JEE Main 2022 · 26 Jul · Shift 2, Physics question 35

Two uniformly charged spherical conductors A and B of radii 5 mm and 10 mm are separated by a distance of 2 cm. If the spheres are connected by a conducting wire, then in equilibrium condition, the ratio of the magnitudes of the electric fields at the surface of the sphere A and B will be :

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Same potential after connection, and E=VrE=\frac Vr at the surface: EA:EB=rB:rA=2:1E_A:E_B=r_B:r_A=2:1.

(B)
