An uncharged ...

Question

An uncharged spherical conductor is placed in such a way that its centre coincides with the origin. Two cavities bearing charges +q and -q, are craved inside it
The field outside the sphere at a distance r will be.??

Open in App

Solution

Dear student
when we draw gaussian surface at a distance r from the centre of sphere then the net charge enclosed inside the gaussian surface is zero hence the electric field is zero at a distance r from the centre of conducting sphere,
