An insulating solid sphere of radius R is charged in a non-uniform manner such that volume charge density ρ=rA, where A is a positive constant and r is the distance from centre. Potential difference between centre and surface of sphere is –
A
∈0AR
B
4∈0AR
C
π∈0AR
D
2∈0AR
Answer
2∈0AR
Explanation
Solution

E × 4pr2 = ϵ0q
E × 4pr2 = ∫0rrA × 4pr2 dr
E = 2∈0A
Potential difference = E × d
=
