A point positive charge is brought near an isolated conducting sphere as shown in figures. The electric field is best given by:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
(iv)

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
When + q charge is placed near to metal sphere, the electrons in sphere set nearer to + q and positive charges set away from +q.
Electric field lines from positive charge is perpendicular to surface and outwards and from negative charge is perpendicular to surface and inwards. This property is shown in (A).
