Homework Statement
An insulating hollow spherical shell of radius R has a small hole on it .The shell has a charge Q uniformly distributed over it. What is the electric field strength at the center of this hole?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
If the hole weren't present ,the electric field due to the shell just above the surface would have been kQ/R2 .
Now I am not sure how does the hole influences the electric field .
Another doubt I am having is shouldn't the question ask about the electric field just above the hole instead of at the center of the hole ?
Could someone help me with the problem ?
