Q151 · Physics

A spherical conductor of radius 10 cm has a charge of 3.2×10−73.2\times10^{-7} C distributed uniformly. What is the magnitude of electric field at a point 15 cm from the centre of the sphere ?

(14πϵ0=9×109 N m2/C2)\left(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} = 9\times10^9\ \mathrm{N\,m^2/C^2}\right)

  1. 11.28×1041.28\times10^4 N/C
  2. 21.28×1051.28\times10^5 N/COfficial answer
  3. 31.28×1061.28\times10^6 N/C
  4. 41.28×1071.28\times10^7 N/C

Official answer: option 2 · NTA final answer key
