- Electric field in the region is directed radialy outwards.
- Magnitude of electric field is E=6r
- Magnitude of electric field is E=6r2
- Electric field decreases as we move radialy outwords.
Q. Satrajit had learned in electrostatics that the electric field inside a conductor is always zero. Now they are telling him that when current flows, an electric field gets set up inside a conductor which drifts the electrons, thus making the current flow. This makes no sense to him.
It makes no sense to him because
It makes no sense to him because
- They are telling him some random things which has no science in it
- He doesn’t understand that electric field inside a conductor is zero only under electrostatic conditions
- He thinks electric field is non conservative.
- He thinks electric field is not a vector.
