Q.

As shown in the figure, a point charge Q is placed at the centre of the conducting spherical shell of inner radius a and outer radius b. The electric field due to charge Q in three different regions I, II and III is given by:            

(I: r<a, II: a<r<b, III: r>b)                                 [2023]

 

1 EI=0,  EII=0,  EIII0  
2 EI0,  EII=0,  EIII0  
3 EI0,  EII=0,  EIII=0  
4 EI=0,  EII=0,  EIII=0
