Question

The adjoining figure shows a point charge +q located at a distance r/2 from the centre of spherical metal shell. Draw the electric field lines for the given system.

Answer 1

Given:

The adjoining figure shows a point charge +q located at a distance r/2 from the centre of a spherical metal shell.  

To draw:

Draw the electric field lines for the given system.

Solution:

Consider the attached figure while going through the following steps.

Here, we use the property of the electric field lines,

Electric field lines start from a positively charged body and terminate at a negatively charged body.

From given figure, it's clear that a positive charge +q is located, so the electric field lines will move to outside from inside, irrespective of the distance of charge from the centre of a spherical metal shell.
