$A$ metal sphere of radius $r$ carrying charge $q$ is placed at the center of a metallic shell of radius $R$ carrying charge $Q$. Find the expression for the potential difference between the sphere and the shell.

  • A
    $V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \frac{q}{r}$
  • B
    $V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \frac{q}{R}$
  • C
    $V = \frac{q}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \left( \frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R} \right)$
  • D
    $V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \left( \frac{q+Q}{r} \right)$
