A thin metallic spherical shell carries a charge Q on it. A point charge q is placed at the centre of the shell and another charge q 1 is placed outside it as shown in Fig. All the three charges are positive.
The force on the charge at the center is –
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Since field inside the sphere is due to q itself. Therefore force on it will be zero.
