Consider the force F on a charge ' q ' due to a uniformly charged spherical shell of radius R carrying charge Q distributed uniformly over it. Which one of the following statements is true for F, if ' q ' is placed at distance r from the centre of the shell?
Consider the force F on a charge ' q ' due to a uniformly charged spherical shell of radius R carrying charge Q distributed uniformly over it. Which one of the following statements is true for F, if ' q ' is placed at distance r from the centre of the shell?
Option 1 -
F = (1 / 4πε₀) * (Qq / R²) for r < R
Option 2 -
(1 / 4πε₀) * (qQ / R²) > F > 0 for r < R
Option 3 -
F = (1 / 4πε₀) * (qQ / r²) for r > R
Option 4 -
F = (1 / 4πε₀) * (qQ / r²) for all r
