Solution

The correct option is A

zero


The correct option is (A).

Step 1: Given data:

Potential = 6v

And, radius = 2m

Step 2: Explanation:

As we know for an spherical conductor, the charges reside on its surface.

Therefore, the electric intensity at the center becomes zero.

So, the answer is zero.
