    Electric field due to solid & Hollow sphere || Graphs

    Sketch the electric field lines for a uniformly charged hollow cylinder shown in adjoining figure.

    Assertion: Electric field intensity inside a solid non-conducting uniformly charged solid sphere increases linearly inside the sphere. Reason: Electric field intensity outside the solid non-conducting uniformly charged solid sphere is same as the electric field generated by a point charge kept at the centre of sphere.
