MCQ
Two spherical, nonconducting, and very thin shells of uniformly distributed positive charge $Q$ and radius d are located a distance $10d$ from each other. A positive point charge $q$ is placed inside one of the shells at a distance $d/2$ from the center, on the line connecting the centers of the two shells, as shown in the figure. What is the net force on the charge $q $ ?
  • $\frac{{qQ}}{{361\pi {\varepsilon _0}{d^2}}}$ to the left
  • B
    $\frac{{qQ}}{{361\pi {\varepsilon _0}{d^2}}}$ to the right 
  • C
    $\frac{{362qQ}}{{361\pi {\varepsilon _0}{d^2}}}$ to the left
  • D
    $\frac{{360qQ}}{{361\pi {\varepsilon _0}{d^2}}}$ to the right 

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{{qQ}}{{361\pi {\varepsilon _0}{d^2}}}$ to the left
a
Electric force on charge $q$ due to sphre $A$ is zero.

But electric force due to sphere $B$ on charge $q$ is

$\mathrm{F}=\frac{9 Q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}\left(\frac{19}{2} \mathrm{d}\right)^{2}}$ towards left

$=\frac{\mathrm{qQ}}{361 \pi \varepsilon_{0} \mathrm{d}^{2}}$ towards left
