The electrostatic potential inside a charged sphere is given as \(V=A r^2+B\), where \(r\) is the distance from the centre of the sphere, \(A\) and \(B\) are constants. Then, the charge density in the sphere is

  1. A \(16 A \varepsilon_0\)
  2. B \(-6 A \varepsilon_0\)
  3. C \(20 A \varepsilon_0\)
  4. D \(-15 A \varepsilon_0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-6 A \varepsilon_0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the volume charge density be \(\rho\). The electric field inside the charged sphere, \( E=\frac{K q r}{R^3} \) where, \(R=\) Radius of charged sphere \(r=\) Distance of the point \((P)\) inside the sphere As volume charge density is \(\rho\), then in terms of charge density,…
