    The capacitance of a metallic sphere is\[1\mu F,\]then its radius is nearly

    A)  1.11 m         

    B)  10 m

    C)  9 km           

    D)  1.11 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     For a spherical capacitor of radius R, the capacitance is given by \[C=4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}R\] Given, \[C=1\text{ }\mu F=1\times {{10}^{-6}}F\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[R=\frac{C}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\] \[=9\times {{10}^{9}}\times 1\times {{10}^{-6}}m\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[R=9\times {{10}^{3}}m\] \[=9\,km\]
