An ellipsoidal cavity is carved with in a perfect conductor. A positive charge q is placed at the centre of the cavity. The points A and B are on the cavity surface as shown in the figure then (a) Electric field near A in the cavity = Electric field near B in the cavity (b) Charge density at A= Charge density at B (c ) Potential at A= Potential at B (d) Total electric flux through the surface of the cavity is q//epsi_(0) .

A solid spherical conductor of radius R has a spherical cavity inside it (see figure). A point charge q is placed at the centre of the cavity. (a) What is the potential of the conductor? (b) If the charge q is shifted inside the cavity by a distance Deltax , how does the potential of the conductor change? (c) How does your answer to the question (a) and (b) change if the cavity is not spherical and the charge q is placed at any point inside it (see figure) (d) Draw electric field lines in entire space in each case. In which case all field lines are straight lines

There is a cubical cavity inside a conducting sphere of radius R. A positive point charge Q is placed at the centre of the cube and another positive charge q is placed at a distance 1(gtR) from the centre of the sphere. The sphere is earthed Net charge on the outer surface of conducting sphere is
