What is the electric field at points inside a uniformly charged thin spherical shell?
AZero everywhere inside
BEqual to the surface value
CEqual to a point charge value
DLargest at the centre
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Zero everywhere inside
A Gaussian surface inside the shell encloses no charge, so the field there vanishes.
