A conducting sphere of radius R carrying charge Q lies inside an uncharged conducting shell of radius 2R. If they are joined by a metal wire, the amount of heat that will be produced is

  1. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{Q^{2}}{4 R}\)
  2. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{Q^{2}}{2 R}\)
  3. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{Q^{2}}{R}\)
  4. \(\frac{2}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{Q^{2}}{3 R}\)

Answer

(A) 1 4 _ 0 Q^ 2 4 R
