Question

A thin spherical shell of metal has a radius of 0.25 m and carries a charge of 0.2 microCoulomb. The electric intensity at a point inside the shell will be

Answer 1

$\huge\mathtt\pink{A}\mathtt\red{N}\mathtt\blue{S}\mathtt\green{W}\mathtt\purple{E}\mathtt\green{R} \: 0$

Explanation:

The value of electric intensity is zero inside a spherical shell. The charge enclosed inside the spherical shell is 0. So,E=0. Therefore, due to the electric field, the uniformly charged spherical shell is zero at all points inside the shell.
