A hollow conducting spherical shell of radius 1.20 cm carries a charge of -5.20 nC.What is the electric field at a distance of 1.50 cm from the center of the shell? A) 1.03 $\times$ 10⁶ N/C outward B) 0 N/C C) 2.08 $\times$ 10⁵ N/C inward D) 2.08 $\times$ 10⁵ N/C outward E) 1.03 $\times$ 10⁶ N/C inward

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For a hollow spherical shell, the electric field at any point inside the shell is zero. Therefore, the electric field at a distance of 1.50 cm from the center of the shell, which is inside the shell, is zero. Choice C is the only option that corresponds to a zero electric field.
