Q.

Let there be a spherically symmetric charge distribution with charge density varying as   ρ(r)=ρ0(54rR)  upto  r=R and  ρ(r)=0 for r>R  Where r is the distance from the origin. The electric field at a distance r(r<R) from the origin is given by

Detailed Solution

Apply shell theorem , the total charge q upto distance r can be calculated 

dq=4πr2drρ 

=4πr2drρ0[54rR]

=4πrρ0[54r2drr3Rdr]

q=dq=4πρ00r(54r2drr2Rdr]

q=dq=4πρ00r(54r2drr2Rdr]

As electric field Intensity

E=kqr2=14π01r24πρ0(54(r33)r44R)

=ρ0r40[53rR]
