Question 1 |
As shown in the figure below, two concentric conducting spherical shells, centered
at r=0 and having radii r=c and r=d are maintained at potentials such that
the potential V(r) at r=c is V_1 and V(r) at r=d is V_2. Assume that V(r) depends
only on r , where r is the radial distance. The expression for V(r) in the region
between r=c and r=d is
V(r)=\frac{cd(V_2-V_1)}{(d-c)r}-\frac{V_1c+V_2d-2V_1d}{d-c} | |
V(r)=\frac{cd(V_1-V_2)}{(d-c)r}-\frac{V_2d-V_1c}{d-c} | |
V(r)=\frac{cd(V_1-V_2)}{(d-c)r}-\frac{V_1c-V_2c}{d-c} | |

Question 1 Explanation:
We have, Laplace equation
\triangledown ^2V=0 ...(1)
where, \triangledown ^2V=\frac{1}{r^2}\frac{\partial }{\partial r}\left ( r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} \right )+\frac{1}{r^2 \sin \theta }\frac{\partial }{\partial \theta }\left ( \sin \theta \frac{\partial V}{\partial \theta } \right )+ \frac{1}{r^2 \sin ^2\theta } \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial \phi ^2}
V will have only radial component.
From equation (1)
\frac{1}{r^2}\frac{\partial }{\partial r}\left ( r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} \right )=0
Integrate both side r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} =P
Again integrate, V=-\frac{P}{r}+Q
Here, P and Q are constant.
Given: at r=c, V=V_1
V_1=-\frac{P}{r}+Q ...(2)
at r=d, V=V_2
V_2=-\frac{P}{d}+Q ...(3)
From eq. (2) & (3)
P=\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{d-c}
Q=V_1+\frac{d(V_2-V_1)}{d-c}
From eq. (1),
V=-\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{r(d-c)}+V_1+\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{(d-c)}
V=\frac{(V_1-V_2)cd}{r(d-c)}+\frac{(V_2d-V_1c)}{(d-c)}
\triangledown ^2V=0 ...(1)
where, \triangledown ^2V=\frac{1}{r^2}\frac{\partial }{\partial r}\left ( r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} \right )+\frac{1}{r^2 \sin \theta }\frac{\partial }{\partial \theta }\left ( \sin \theta \frac{\partial V}{\partial \theta } \right )+ \frac{1}{r^2 \sin ^2\theta } \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial \phi ^2}
V will have only radial component.
From equation (1)
\frac{1}{r^2}\frac{\partial }{\partial r}\left ( r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} \right )=0
Integrate both side r^2\frac{\partial V}{\partial r} =P

Given: at r=c, V=V_1
V_1=-\frac{P}{r}+Q ...(2)
at r=d, V=V_2
V_2=-\frac{P}{d}+Q ...(3)
From eq. (2) & (3)
P=\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{d-c}
Q=V_1+\frac{d(V_2-V_1)}{d-c}
From eq. (1),
V=-\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{r(d-c)}+V_1+\frac{(V_2-V_1)cd}{(d-c)}
V=\frac{(V_1-V_2)cd}{r(d-c)}+\frac{(V_2d-V_1c)}{(d-c)}

Question 4 Explanation:
If voltage source is removed then in both cases charge O is constant.
\begin{aligned} \text { Case-1: }\left(Q_{1},=Q ; V_{1}=\right.&V) \\ Q_{1} &=C_{1} V_{1} \\ Q &=\frac{\epsilon_{0}(5) A}{d} V_{1} \\ Q &=5\left(\frac{\epsilon_{0} A}{d}\right) V_{1} \\ \text { Case-2: }\left(Q_{2}=Q ; V_{2}\right) & \\ Q_{2} &=C_{2} V_{2} \\ Q &=\frac{\epsilon_{0}(1) A}{d} V_{2} \\ Q &=\left(\frac{\epsilon_{0} A}{d}\right) V_{2} \end{aligned}
Equation (i) is equal to equation (ii)
\begin{aligned} \Rightarrow 5\left(\frac{\epsilon_{0} A}{d}\right) V_{1} &=\left(\frac{\epsilon_{0} A}{d}\right) V_{2} \\ \Rightarrow \qquad \qquad 5 V_{1} &=V_{2} \\ \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} &=5 \\ E_{1} &=\frac{V_{1}}{d} ; E_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{d} \\ \frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} &=\frac{V_{2} / d}{V_{1} / d} \\ \Rightarrow \qquad \qquad \frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} &=\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} \end{aligned}
