Question

The value of electric field at the center of hollow spherical metallic shell of radius 5m, having positive charge of 10c is​

Answer 1

Given:

The radius of the hollow spherical metallic shell = 5 m

Charge inside the sphere = 10 C

To find:

The value of the electric field at the centre of the metallic shell

Calculation:

For a metallic shell, the charge present in the shell should reside on the surface of the shell

So the charge at any point inside the hollow metallic sphere will be zero. Therefore, the electric field inside the shell will be zero

The value of the electric field at the centre of the hollow metallic shell is zero
