A conducting spherical shell with a radius of \(20~\text{cm}\) carries a charge of \(+5~\mu\text{C}.\) Another spherical shell, with a radius of \(10~\text{cm}\) and a charge of \(-6~\mu\text{C},\) is placed far away (large separation) from the first shell. The potential difference between the two shells is:
1. \(7.65\times10^{5}\) V 2. \(3.15\times10^{5}\) V
3. \(5.4\times10^{5}\) V 4. \(2.25\times10^{5}\) V

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): In the absence of an externally applied electric field, the displacement per unit volume of a polar dielectric material is always zero.
Reason (R): In polar dielectrics, each molecule has a permanent dipole moment, but these dipoles are randomly oriented when there is no external electric field.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.
