Q
Q: A hollow sphere with charge Q has a radius R. What is the electric field at a point inside the sphere?
Solution:
Inside a hollow charged sphere, the electric field is zero due to symmetry, as per Gauss's law.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that we have a hollow sphere with charge Q and radius R.
Step 2: Recognize that we want to find the electric field at a point inside this hollow sphere.
Step 3: Recall that electric fields are affected by the distribution of charge around them.
Step 4: Note that the hollow sphere has charge only on its surface, and there is no charge inside it.
Step 5: Use Gauss's law, which states that the electric field inside a closed surface with no charge inside is zero.
Step 6: Conclude that because there is no charge inside the hollow sphere, the electric field at any point inside the sphere is zero.
