A and B are two concentric spherical shells. If A is given a charge `+q` while B is earthed as shown in figure then

A

The charge density of A and B are same

B

The field inside and outside A is zero

C

The field between A and B is not zero

D

The field inside and outside B is zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Charge –Q is induced (from earth) on the inner surface of the outer shell and electric field will exist b/w A & B.
