Charges Q, 2Q and 4Q are uniformly distributed in three dielectric solid spheres 1, 2 and 3 of radii `R//2`, R and 2R respectively, as shown in figure. If magnitude of the electric fields at point P at a distance R from the centre of sphere 1,2 and 3 are `E_1, E_2 and E_3` respectively, then

A

`E_(1) gt E_(2) gt E_(3)`

B

`E_(3) gt E_(1) gt E_(2)`

C

`E_(2) gt E_(1) gt E_(3)`

D

`E_(3) gt E_(2) gt E_(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`E_(1)=(KQ)/R^(2)`
`E_(2)=(K(2Q))/R^(2)`
`E_(3)=(K(4Q))/((2R)^(3))xxR=(KQ)/(2R^(2))`
`E_(2) gt E_(1) gt E_(3)`
