JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Electric Field and Potential

  • question_answer
    The electric field inside a spherical shell of uniform surface charge density is                                                                                                                                     [CPMT 1982; MP PET 1994; RPET 2000]

    A)                    Zero

    B)                    Constant, less than zero

    C)                    Directly proportional to the distance from the centre

    D)                    None of the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                 All charge resides on the outer surface so that according to Gauss law, electric field inside a shell is zero.
