Let there be a spherically symmetric charge distribution with charge density varying as  ρ(r)=ρ054rR  up to   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

a
ρ0r4ε053−rR
b
4πρ0r3ε054−rR
c
2ρ0r4ε054−rR
d
ρ0r3ε054−rR

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Let us consider a spherical shell of radius x and thickness dx .Charge on this shelldq=ρ.4πx2dx=ρ054−xR⋅4πx2dx  Total charge in the spherical region from centre to r (r
