Q#1 Electrostatics GATE EE 2022 (Set 1) MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

As shown in the figure below, two concentric conducting spherical shells, centered at r = 0 and having radii r = c and r= d are maintained at potentials such that the potential V(r) at r = c is  and V(r) at r = d is . Assume that V(r) depends only on r, where r is the radial distance. The expression for V(r) in the region between r = c and r = d is
