. A spherical portion has been removed from a solid sphere having a charge
distributeduniformly in its volume as shown in the figure. The electric field inside the emptiedspace is :
A: zero everywhere
B: non - zero and uniform
C: non - uniform
D: zero only at its center
Best Answer
Explanation:
From the image, consider a point P inside the cavity and let ρ be the charge density.
Then, after applying superposition principle the net electric field at point P will be:
Final answer:
The electric field inside the emptiedspace is non-zero and uniform within the cavity.
Therefore, Option “B” is correct.
