The electric field due to a point charge at a distance r depends according to inverse square law . State how the following quantities depend upon r.(i) potential due to a point charge(ii) potential at a distance r from the centre of a charged metallic sphere of radius R (r < R). |

Answer» The relation between potential and R can be given by the following formulas V = q / 4πε₀r In this case the potential is inversely proprtional to r i.e, V∝ r⁻¹
V = q / 4πε₀R In this case the potential does not depends on r i.e, V∝ r⁰
