Two metallic spheres of same radii- one hollow and one solid- are charged to the same potential- Which will hold charge-Hollow sphereBoth will hold same chargeSolid sphereCannot predict

Question

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

Both the spheres - hollow and solid will hold same amount of charge- Because both will have same capacitance which depends on radii of the sphere- not on hollow or solid-xA0-
