Q. Which one of the graphs represents the variation of electric field strength $E$ with distance $r$ from the center of a uniformly charged conducting sphere ?

AMUAMU 2001

Solution:

Electric field inside a spherical charge is zero everywhere, outside the shell the electric field $E$ decreases rapidly $\left(E \propto \frac{1}{r^{2}}\right)$. Hence correct variation is
