[2014]
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 23.(b)
Solution:
- (b) First when $(r<R) E \propto r$ and then when $r \geq$ $R E \propto \frac{1}{r^{2}}$. Hence graph (b) correctly dipicts.
The field strength of uniform solid sphere within it decreases linearly with ’ $r$ ’ and becomes zero as we reach at the centre of the sphere.
