Find the capacitance of a system consisting of a metal sphere of radius a placed at a large distance from an identical metallic sphere.
[Hint: When the distance is large the charges on the spheres may be assumed to be distributed practically uniformly over the surfaces of the spheres. Consider their potential difference and apply `C=Q//V.`
