Electric Potential and Capacitance · Potential

Two charged conducting spheres S1S_1 and S2S_2 of radii 8 cm and 18 cm are connected to each other by a wire. After equilibrium is established, the electric fields on S1S_1 and S2S_2 spheres are ES1E_{S1} and ES2E_{S2} respectively. The value of ES1ES2\dfrac{E_{S1}}{E_{S2}} is .
  1. (1)32\dfrac32
  2. (2)23\dfrac23
  3. (3)49\dfrac49
  4. (4)94\dfrac94
We corrected a printing error in the original paper

Source printed “the ratio of electric fields on S1S_1 and S2S_2 spheres are ES1E_{S1} and ES2E_{S2}” (extra words “ratio of”).
