Between a solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same radius, which has a greater capacity to hold electric charge?

$A$ cylindrical capacitor has inner and outer conductors whose radii are in the ratio $10:1$. The inner conductor is replaced by a wire whose radius is half of the original inner conductor. To obtain the same capacitance as the original capacitor,by what ratio should the length of the wire be increased?

$A$ spherical capacitor consists of two concentric spherical conductors,held in position by suitable insulating supports. Show that the capacitance of a spherical capacitor is given by $C = \frac{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} r_{1} r_{2}}{r_{1} - r_{2}}$,where $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ are the radii of outer and inner spheres,respectively.

The radii of a spherical capacitor are $0.5 \ m$ and $0.6 \ m$. If the space between them is filled with a dielectric medium of dielectric constant $6$,what will be the capacitance of the capacitor?
