# What would be the outcomes in this arrangement? would potential varies along a conducting wire? [closed]

Two conducting solid sphere,one with charge Q1 and radius R1 and the other with charge Q2 and radius R2 are kept far away

$$Q_1=5Q_2 \text{ and } R_1=5R_2$$

If these spheres are connected with conducting wire, then the potential is same at the two ends of the wire.

I saw these questions in a pdf of a textbook, i am unable to answer these, good explanations would be appreciated...these questions are as follows----

1. Is the potential at a point between the two ends of the wire the same as potential at the end? In other words, is the potential same throughout the wire? if yes, why??

Remember, potential from a sphere depends upon "x" displacement from the centre by KQ/R.

• @ThePhoton it wasn't an assumption, you can actually calculate Potential at the two points and it would came out to be same as spheres are placed far away( it signifies that the potential at any end is only due to the sphere it is connected to , you can neglect effect of other sphere) Apr 30 at 15:35
• @ThePhoton and please use numbers to indicate which part of the question you are answering Apr 30 at 15:36
• @ThePhoton, in my question,charges are already of same kind in the sphere , and both sphere have same potential at the surfaces already so no current would be generated Apr 30 at 17:17
• @ThePhoton What I really want to know are the answers of the three questions that I have listed Apr 30 at 17:18
