    \[N\] identical spherical drops are charged to the same potential \[V\]. They combine to form a bigger drop. The potential of the big drop will be:

    A) \[V{{N}^{1/3}}\]                              

    B)  \[V{{N}^{2/3}}\]

    C)  \[V\]                                    

    D)  \[VN\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Volume of \[N\] small drops is equal to volume of single big drop. Volume of \[N\] small drops = volume of one big drop \[i.e.,\] \[\left( \frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}} \right)N=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{R}^{3}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[R={{N}^{1/3}}r\]                 \[V'=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{Nq}{R}=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{Nq}{{{N}^{1/3}}r}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[V'={{N}^{2/3}}V\]            \[\left( as\,\,V=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{q}{r} \right)\]
