    If an insulated non-conducting sphere of radius R has charge density p. The electric field at a distance r from the centre of sphere (r > R) will

    A)  \[\frac{\rho R}{3{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]

    B)  \[\frac{\rho r}{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]

    C)  \[\frac{\rho r}{3{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]

    D)  \[\frac{3\rho R}{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Charge which is enclosed in the surface is given by\[\sigma =\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\rho \]? Now, according to Gaussian law \[\varepsilon \oint{Eds}=\sigma \] \[{{\varepsilon }_{0}}E4\pi {{r}^{2}}=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\rho \] \[E=\frac{\rho r}{3{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]
