Question

Does the charge given to a metallic sphere depend on whether it is hollow or solid? Give reason for your answer. [Delhi 2017]

Answer 1

Answer:

The charge given to a metallic sphere does not depend on whether it is hollow or solid. This is because whatever amount of charge given to the metallic conductor whether it is hollow or solid always resides on the surface of that conductor.

Answer 2

Charge always remains on the surface of the sphere

If you withdraw some charge on a metallic sphere it gets constrained at the surface only .

Therefore the charge on a metallic surface doesn't depend on whether it's hollow or solid.
