Question
Why is the potential inside a hollow spherical charged conductor constant and has the same value of as on its surface?
Advertisements
Solution
Electric field inside the shell is zero. So no work is done in moving a charge inside the shell. This implies that potential is constant, and therefore equal to its value at the surface i.e.
`V=1/(4piE_0) q/r`
