Statement – I: An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere. The flux of the electric field through the sphere is zero but the electric field is not zero anywhere in the sphere. Statement – II: If R is the radius of a solid metallic sphere and Q be the total charge on it. The electric field at any point on the spherical surface of radius r (< R) is zero but the electric flux passing through this closed spherical surface of radius r is not zero. In the light of the above statements Choose the correct answer from the option given below: a. Statement I is true but Statement II is false b. Statement I is false but Statement II is true c. Both Statement I and Statement II are true d. Both Statement I and Statement II are false

The correct answer is a. Statement I is true but Statement II is false According to Gauss's law, electric flux depends only on the charge... View Article
