Electric Field inside the spherical shell

[Hardik Batra]

As we know there are charge on spherical shell then electrical field inside the shell will be zero.

1) If there is no charge on the spherical shell, but has charge inside the shell then what is the electric field inside and outside the shell?

2) If there is charge on the spherical shell and also have charge inside the shell then what is the electric field inside and outside the shell?

As we know there are charge on spherical shell then electrical field inside the shell will be zero.

1) If there is no charge on the spherical shell, but has charge inside the shell then what is the electric field inside and outside the shell?

2) If there is charge on the spherical shell and also have charge inside the shell then what is the electric field inside and outside the shell?

Is this spherical shell a conductor and is it hollow or solid?

Do you have a textbook that covers Gauss' law?

It's conductor and it is hollow.

 

[BOAS]

What can you say about the distribution of the charge?

Gauss' law states that the flux through a gaussian surface is the net charge enclosed, over the permittivity of free space, what does that tell you about the field inside the sphere?

1) If there is no charge on the spherical shell, but there is charge inside the shell, the electric field inside the shell will not be zero. The electric field inside the shell will depend on the distribution of charge inside the shell. If the charge is uniformly distributed, the electric field inside the shell will also be uniform. However, if the charge is not uniformly distributed, the electric field inside the shell will vary at different points. The electric field outside the shell will also be affected by the charge inside, but it will also depend on the distance from the shell and the distribution of charge on the shell.

2) If there is charge on the spherical shell and also charge inside the shell, the electric field inside and outside the shell will be affected by both the charges. The electric field inside the shell will depend on the distribution of charge inside and outside the shell. If the charges are of opposite sign, the electric field inside the shell may be reduced or even become zero at certain points due to cancellation of the fields from the two charges. The electric field outside the shell will also be affected by the charges inside, but it will also depend on the distance from the shell and the distribution of charge on the shell. In this case, the electric field outside the shell may be stronger or weaker depending on the distribution of charges.
