Zero​

Answer 1

Answer:

100 volt will be you answer.

Hope it'll help you

Answer 2

Considering the sphere to be conducting, the potential at 1m from the center of the sphere is 200V.

• We know that the electric field at any point is the negative gradient of the potential at that point.
• As we go inside the conductor from the surface, the electric field becomes zero.
• This implies that the potential of a conductor remains constant as we move from the surface to the inside of a conductor.
• Hence, the potential at a point inside the conductor is equal to the potential at the surface i.e. 200V
