Two spherical conductors A1 and A2 of radii r1 and r2 and carrying charges q1 and q2 are connected in air by a copper wire as shown in the figure. Then the equivalent capacitance of the system is–

A

(a) 4πε0r1r2r2r1\frac{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}r_{1}r_{2}}{r_{2} - r_{1}}

A

(b) 4pĪ0 (r1 + r2)

A

(c) 4pĪ0 r2

A

(d) 4pĪ0 r1

Explanation

Solution

(b)

Ceq = C1 + C2 = 4p e0 (r1 + r2)
