A spherical portion has been removed from a solid sphere having a charge distributed uniformly in its volume as shown in the figure. The electric field inside the emptied space is A spherical portion has been removed from a solid sphere having a charge distributed uniformly in its volume as shown

Options

  1. Azero everywhere
  2. Bnon-zero and uniform
  3. Cnon-uniform
  4. Dzero only at its centre

Correct answer

B. non-zero and uniform

Step-by-step solution

Inside the cavity, field at any point is uniform and non-zero. Therefore, correct option is (b).
