If the potential at the center of a uniformly charged sphere of radius R is V then electric field at a distance r from the center of sphere will be ` ( r lt R ) ` : -

A

` (VR ) /( r ^ 2 ) `

B

` ( 2 Vr ) /(3 R ^ 2 ) `

C

`( 2 VR ) /( r ^ 2 ) `

D

` ( VR ) /( R^ 2 + r ^ 2 ) `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Potential at the center of a uniformly charged sphere is given by
`V = ( 3 Q ) /( 8pi in _ 0 R ) ` where Q is change on sphere,
` k Q = ( 2 vR ) /( 3 ) `
For a inside point hollow sphere behaves like a point charge, placed at centre hence electric field, ` E = ( kQr ) /( R^ 3 ) = ( 2 vr ) /( 3 R^ 2 ) `

Assertion: Electric potential on the surface of a charged sphere of radius R is V. Then electric field at distance r=R/2 from centre is V/(2R) . Charge is distributed uniformly over the volume. Reason: From centre to surface, electric field varies linearly with r. Here r is distance from centre.
