A charge of 50 μC is uniformly distributed on the surface of a thin spherical shell of radius 10 cm. The electric field at a point at a distance of 5 cm from the center of the shell is |
$18 × 10^7\, N/C$ $9 × 10^7\, N/C$ $9 × 10^6\, N/C$ Zero |
Zero |
The correct answer is Option (4) → Zero By Gauss's Law, the electric field inside a uniformly charged spherical shell is zero. Since the point lies at a distance of 5 cm from the center, which is inside the shell (radius 10 cm), the electric field is: $E = 0$ |
