Question

Two drops of a liquid at a distance of 1 cm from each other are each charged to the same potential of 100 volts. They are then merged into one large drop. The potential of the large drop will be\

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

When n drops join, the new potential is $$ \mathrm{V}^{1}=\mathrm{n}^{\frac{2}{3}} \mathrm{~V}=2^{\frac{2}{3}} 	imes 100=1.59 	imes 100 	ext { volt } $$
