Analyzing +4 | -1
A conducting sphere of radius RR, carrying charge QQ, lies inside an uncharged conducting shell of radius 2R2R. If they are joined by a metal wire,

(A) Q/3Q/3 amount of charge will flow from the sphere to the shell

(B) 2Q/32Q/3 amount of charge will flow from the sphere to the shell

(C) QQ amount of charge will flow from the sphere to the shell

(D) amount of heat will be produced KQ2/4RK Q^2 / 4 R
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
CC and DD are correct
Option C (C and D are correct) is correct because when the spheres are connected, they reach the same potential, causing all the charge to flow to the outer sphere, and heat is generated due to the change in electrostatic energy.
