  • question_answer
    The electric field in a region is radially outward with magnitude \[E=A{{\gamma }_{0}}\]. The charge contained in a sphere of radius \[{{\gamma }_{0}}\] centered at the origin is     [AMU 1999]

    A)            \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}A\gamma _{0}^{3}\]    

    B)            \[4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}A\gamma _{0}^{3}\]

    C)            \[\frac{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{{{\gamma }_{0}}}\]        

    D)            \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\frac{A}{\gamma _{0}^{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Flux linked with the given sphere \[\varphi =\frac{Q}{{{\varepsilon }_{o}}};\] where Q = Charge enclosed by the sphere. Hence Q = fe­o = (EA)eo            Þ Q = 4p (go)2 ´ Agoeo = 4peoAgo3.
