    If the capacity of a spherical conductor is 1 picofarad, then its diameter, would be                                            [Pb. PMT 1999]

    A)            \[1.8\times {{10}^{-3}}m\]

    B)                                      \[18\times {{10}^{-3}}m\]

    C)            \[1.8\times {{10}^{-5}}m\]

    D)                                      \[18\times {{10}^{-7}}m\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[C=4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}R\] \[R=\frac{C}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}=9\times {{10}^{9}}\times {{10}^{-12}}=9\times {{10}^{-3}}m\] Diameter = 2R = 2 ´ 9 ´ 10?3 = 18 ´ 10?3 m
