A conducting sphere of radius is attached to an insulating handle. Another conducting sphere of radius R is mounted on an insulating stand. is initially uncharged. is given a charge , brought into contact with and removed. is then recharged such that the charge on it is again & it is again brought into contact with & removed. This procedure is repeated times
