Question

A hollow metal sphere of radius R is uniformly charged. The electric field due to the sphere at a distance r from the centre :

• A. increases as \(r\) increases for \(r < R\) and for \(r > R\)
• B. zero as r increases for \( r < R\), decreases as r increases for \( r > R \)
• C. zero as r increases for \(r < R\), increases as r increases for \(r > R \)
• D. decreases as \( r\) increases for \( r < R \) and for \(r > R \)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The correct option is (B) :zero as r increases for \( r < R\), decreases as r increases for \( r > R \)
