Consider the shown system of two concentric thin metal shells. The inner shell has charge $Q$,while the outer shell is neutral. The potential difference between the shells is $V$. If the shells are joined by a metal wire,then the potential of the inner shell is

Two conductors of the same shape and size,one of copper and the other of aluminium (which is less conducting),are placed in a uniform electric field. What can be said about the charge induced in the aluminium conductor?

Two thin conducting concentric shells of radii $R$ and $2R$ are shown in the figure. The outer shell carries a charge $+Q$ and the inner shell is neutral. When the switch $K$ is closed,which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are correct?
$(a)$ The potential on the inner shell becomes zero.
$(b)$ The charge on the inner shell is $\frac{Q}{2}$.

Given below are two statements $:$ one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A) :$ The outer body of an aircraft is made of metal which protects persons sitting inside from lightning strikes.
Reason $(R) :$ The electric field inside the cavity enclosed by a conductor is zero.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

Assertion : In a cavity within a conductor,the electric field is zero.
Reason : Charges in a conductor reside only at its surface.

If two conducting spheres are separately charged and then brought in contact,which of the following statements is true?
