A conducting sphere of radius $10 \mathrm{cm}$ is charged to $10 \mu \mathrm{C}$. Another uncharged sphere of radius $20 \mathrm{cm}$ is allowed to touch it for some time. After that, if the spheres are separated, then surface density of charges on the spheres will be in the ratio of

Two spherical conductors and of radii and are placed concentrically in air. The two are connected by a copper wire as shown in figure. Then the equivalent capacitance of the system is




A dipole having moment is placed in front of a solid uncharged conducting sphere as shown in the diagram. The net potential at point lying on the surface of the sphere is
