Positive charge Q is placed on a conducting spherical shell with inner radius R1 and outer radius R2. The electric field at a point r < R1 is:

Respuesta :

Answer:

E = 0    r <R₁

Explanation:

If we use Gauss's law

      Ф = ∫ E. dA = [tex]q_{int}[/tex] / ε₀

in this case the charge is distributed throughout the spherical shell and as we are asked for the field for a radius smaller than the radius of the spherical shell, therefore, THERE ARE NO CHARGES INSIDE this surface.

Consequently by Gauss's law the electric field is ZERO

           E = 0    r <R₁
