Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field at A is different from field at B because, E=  

r  

2

 

K

​  

 

we know that conductor is equipotential  surface, so potential will be same at A and B.

As charge density ,σ∝  

r

1

​  

, then charge density is different at A and B.

Using Gauss's law, flux through the surface of the cavity, ϕ=
