An infinitely long thin non-conducting wire is parallel to the z-axis and carries a uniform line charge density `lambda`. It pierces a thin non - conducting spherical shell of radius R in such a way that arc PQ subtends an angle `120^(@)` at the centre O of the spherical shell , as shown in the figure . The permittivity of the spherical shell , as shwon in the figure . The permittivity of free space is `in_(0)` . Which of the following statements is (are) ture ?

A

The electric flux through the shell is `sqrt(3)Rlambda//epsi_(0)`

B

The z-component of the electric field is zero at all the points on the surface of the shell

C
