    The surface density on the copper sphere is \[\sigma .\]The electric field strength on the surface of the sphere is

    A) \[\sigma \]                     

    B)        \[\sigma \,/2\]

    C) \[\sigma \,/2{{\varepsilon }_{0}}\]          

    D)        \[Q/{{\varepsilon }_{0}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] According to Gauss's theorem, \[E\oint{ds=\frac{q}{{{\in }_{0}}}\left[ \text{Here}\oint{ds}=4\pi {{R}^{2}} \right]}\] \[\therefore E=\frac{q/4\pi {{R}^{2}}}{{{\in }_{0}}}\left[ \therefore q/4\pi {{R}^{2}}=\sigma  \right]\] or \[E=\sigma /{{\in }_{0}}\]
