Question

Two spherical shells are as shown in figure.

Let r be the distance of a point from their common centre.  Then, match the following columns and mark the correct choice from the given codes.

 Column-I Column-II
i.Electric field for r < R1p.is constant for q2 and vary for q1
ii.Electric potential for r < R1q.is zero for q2 and vary for q1
iii.Electric potential for R1 < r <R2r.is constant
iv.Electric field for R1 < r <R2s.is zero

Codes:

Moderate
Solution

For r < R, E = 0 as no charge is inside region r < R1

E = 0 at all points 

 For r<r1,               dVdx=-E=0

⇒ V = constant for r < R1
For R1 < r < R2, potential is constant for q2 as point lies inside the sphere of radius R2.
Also, for R1 < r < R, charge q2 does not contribute to the field as it lies outside the surface.
