Question

2 conducting thin concentric shells of radii r and 3r .outer shell carries charge q . inner shell is nuetral. Find charge that will flow from inner shell to earth after the switch is closed

Dear Student,At the point when S1 is shut Let charge q1 originates from the earth on external shell Vouter=0 (Q2r+q12r)=0 [qi is charge on external circle after i times ] q1=−Q At the point when S2 is shut k(q|ir−Q2r)=0[qi| is charge on inward circle after i times] q|i=Q2 Presently again when switch S1 is shut k(Q2×2r+q22r)=0 q2=Q Presently when S1 opened and S2 shut k(q|2r−Q22r)=0 Continuing correspondingly we get after n times qn=−Q2n−1 and q|n=Q2n Potential contrast between shells after n times VAB=kq|n[1r−12r] VAB=kQ2n×2=kQ2n+1r.
