Discussion
The field between two concentric spheres held at different potentials is greatest
Answer: D
The field falls as the inverse square of the radius between the spheres, so it is largest where the radius is smallest. Breakdown therefore always begins at the inner electrode, which is why the inner conductor of a high voltage cable is made as large as the design will allow rather than as small as possible.
