The electric field inside a spherical shell of uniform surface charge density is

Question

The electric field inside a spherical shell of uniform surface charge density is (A) Zero (B) Constant less than zero (C) Directly proportional to the distance from the centre (D) None of the above

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Because all charge are present on the outer surface of the shell. Hence, no electric lines are present inside the shell so electric field is absent there.

Zero

Constant less than zero

Directly proportional to the distance from the centre

None of the above
