A spherically symmetric charge distribution is considered with charge density varying as \(\rho(r)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}\rho_{0}\left(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{r}{R}\right) & \text { for } r \leq R \\ \text { Zero } & \text { for } r>R\end{array}\right.\) Where, \(r ( r < R )\) is the distance from the centre \(O\) (as shown in figure). The electric field at point \(P\) will be.

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{\rho_{0} r}{4 \varepsilon_{0}}\left(1-\frac{r}{R}\right)\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\oint \overrightarrow{ E } \cdot d \overrightarrow{ s }=\frac{ Q _{\text {in }}}{\varepsilon_{ o }}\)
\(E .4 \pi r ^{2}=\frac{\int_{0}^{ r } \rho_{ o }\left(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{ r }{ R }\right) 4 \pi r ^{2} dr }{\varepsilon_{0}}\)
\(E 4 \pi r ^{2}=\frac{\rho_{ o } 4 \pi}{\varepsilon_{ o }}\left(\frac{3}{4} \frac{ r ^{3}}{3}-\frac{ r ^{4}}{4 R }\right)\)
\(Er { }^{2}=\frac{\rho_{ o } r ^{3}}{4 \varepsilon_{ o }}\left\{1-\frac{ r }{ R }\right\}\)
\(E =\frac{\rho_{0} r }{4 \varepsilon_{ o }}\left\{1-\frac{ r }{ R }\right\}\)
