  • A
    $E=0$ but $V \neq 0$
  • B
    $E \neq 0$ but $V=0$
  • C
    $E=0$ and $V=0$
  • D

Consider a uniformly charged hemispherical shell of radius $R$ and charge $Q$. If the electric field at point $A (0, 0, -z_0)$ is $\vec E$,then find the electric field at point $B (0, 0, z_0)$,where $z_0 < R$.

Two small conducting spheres of equal radius have charges of $10\ \mu C$ and $-20\ \mu C$ respectively and are placed at a distance $R$ from each other,experiencing a force $F_1$. If they are brought in contact and then separated to the same distance,the new force between them is $F_2$. Find the ratio $F_1 : F_2$.

An empty thick conducting shell of inner radius $a$ and outer radius $b$ is shown in the figure. It is observed that the inner face of the shell carries a uniform charge density $-\sigma$ and the outer surface carries a uniform charge density $+\sigma$. If a point charge $q_A$ is placed at the center and another point charge $q_B$ is placed at a distance $c (> b)$ from the center of the shell,then choose the correct statement.
