Q25 · Physics

A hollow metal sphere of radius R is uniformly charged. The electric field due to the sphere at a distance r from the centre :

  1. 1increases as r increases for r < R and for r > R
  2. 2zero as r increases for r < R, decreases as r increases for r > ROfficial answer
  3. 3zero as r increases for r < R, increases as r increases for r > R
  4. 4decreases as r increases for r < R and for r > R

Official answer: option 2 · NTA final answer key

Same idea

The only question on Field of Spherical Shell

No other NEET paper from 2017–2026 tested this exact idea.
