Question
A spherical conductor of radius 12cm has a charge of 1.6×10−7C distributed uniformly over its surface. Calculate the electric field inside the sphere.
Open in App
Solution
Radius of the spherical conductor, r=12cm=0.12m
Charge is uniformly distributed over the conductor, q=1.6∗10−7C
Electric field inside a spherical conductor is zero.This is because if there is field inside the conductor, then charges will move to neutralize it.
