Question

Two charged spherical conductors of radius R₁ and R₂ are connected by a wire. Then the ratio of surface charge densities of the spheres `(σ_1//σ_2 )` is ______.

Options

• `("R"_1^2)/("R"_2^2)`

• `"R"_1/"R"_2`

• `"R"_2/"R"_1`

• `sqrt(("R"_1/"R"_2))`

Answer 1

Two charged spherical conductors of radius R₁ and R₂ are connected by a wire. Then the ratio of surface charge densities of the spheres `(σ_1//σ_2 )` is `underline("R"_2/"R"_1)`.
