Solution

The correct option is B 27
Given that,
Radius of the sphere, R=0.5 m
Charge of the sphere, Q=10×1010 C

The given integral represent the relation between electric field and electric potential.
0Edr = Potential at centre of sphere - Potential at infinity

The potential at infinity is zero
V = 0
The potential at the centre of the sphere is
Vcentre=3kQ2R
Vcentre=3×9×109×10×10102×0.5=27

So 0Edr=27
