A uniformly charged spherical droplet of mercury with electric potential Vbig breaks into n identical spherical droplets, each with electric potential Vsmall. The n small droplets are far enough apart form one another that they do not interact significantly.
find (Vbig)/(Vsmall) , the ratio of Vbig, the electric potential of the initial drop, to Vsmallthe electric potential of one of the smaller drops.
(The ratio should be dimensionless and should depend only on n)
***( I keep getting
[ 1/((q)(cube root of
)) ]
but its not the right answer)
