Question:

The variation of electric field with the distance from centre due to solid uniformly charged spherical conductor is correctly represented by

(Given R = Radius of spherical conductor)

Options:

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2).

Electric field due to uniformly charged spherical conductor is given as

$E=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}0 & \text { for } & r<R \\ \frac{Q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 r^2} & \text { for } & r \geq R\end{array}\right.$

Hence best plot of E Vs r is
