PhysicsElectric Charges and FieldsMHT CET 2023

A conducting sphere of radius 0.1 has uniform charge density on its surface. The electric field in free space at radial distance 0.2 from a point on the surface is ( = permittivity of free space)

Answer: (C)

Solution

Outside a charged conducting sphere the field is that of a point charge at the centre: with , giving . Here m, , and the point is m from the surface, so
