Statement $(A)$: Inside a charged hollow metal sphere,$E = 0$ and $V \neq 0$. ($E$ = electric field,$V$ = electric potential).
Statement $(B)$: The work done in moving a positive charge on an equipotential surface is zero.
Statement $(C)$: When two like charges are brought closer,their mutual electrostatic potential energy will increase.

Consider two identical metallic spheres of radius $R$ each having charge $Q$ and mass $m$. Their centers have an initial separation of $4 R$. Both the spheres are given an initial speed of $u$ towards each other. The minimum value of $u$, so that they can just touch each other is: (Take $k=\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0}$ and assume $k Q^2 > G m^2$ where $G$ is the Gravitational constant)

The radii of two metallic spheres $P$ and $Q$ are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. They are given the same charge. If $r_1 > r_2$,then on connecting them with a thin wire,the charge will flow
