Concept: Principle of superposition.


Consider a single sphere of given radius ‘a’ charged to potential v. Now consider a spherical surface at
infinite distance which has potential zero. Now we can calculate the electric field at any point and from
that we can calculate the current density with Now we can integrate over any spherical

shell to get the net current I (which turns out to be )

Now suppose the previous arrangement is not there and consider another sphere, charged to
potential –v and follow the above argument. The current will be exactly equals in magnitude but
negative.
Now consider superposition of these two. Now the net result is, a current I is emerging from
sphere at potential v and entering into negativity charged sphere. The sphere at infinity, kept at
zero potential does not matter. We previously calculate relation between I and v.
