Three concentric metallic spherical shell $A, B$ and $C$ or radii $a, b$ and $c$ $(a < b < c)$ have surface charge densities $- \sigma , + \sigma ,$ and $- \sigma $ respectively. The potential of shell $A$ is :

  • A

    $(\sigma/ \varepsilon_0 ) [a + b - c]$

  • B

    $(\sigma/ \varepsilon_0 ) [a - b + c]$

  • C

    $(\sigma/ \varepsilon_0 ) [b - a - c]$

  • D

    none
