Electrostatics Question 60
Question: The electric field between the two spheres of a charged spherical condenser [MP PMT 1994]
Options:
A) Is zero
B) Is constant
C) Increases with distance from the centre
D) Decreases with distance from the centre
Show Answer

Correct Answer: D
Solution:
The electric field between the spheres of a charged capacitor is non-uniform and it decreases with distance from the centre as $ E\propto \frac{1}{r^{2}} $ .
