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 distance from the centre (D) none of the above

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

From shell theorem, there is a no electric field inside a uniform spherical shell of charge, also the electric field outside a uniform spherical shell of total charge Q is like that of a point charge Q at the centre of the shell.

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

zero

constant less than zero

directly proportional to distance from the centre

none of the above

From shell theorem, there is a no electric field inside a uniform spherical shell of charge, also the electric field outside a uniform spherical shell of total charge $Q$ is like that of a point charge $Q$ at the centre of the shell.
