A metallic shell has a point charge q kept inside its cayity. Which of the following diagrame correctly represents the electric lines of forces?

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Electric field is zero everywhere inside a metal (conductor) i.e., field lines do not enter a metal. Simultaneously these are perpendicular to a metal surface (equipotential surface).
