Physics Question on Electric charges and fields

Charges Q, 2Q2 Q and 4Q4 Q are uniformly distributed in three dielectric solid spheres 1,2 and 3 of radii R/2,RR / 2, R and 2R2 R respectively, as shown in figure. If magnitudes of the electric fields at point PP at a distance RR from the centre of spheres 1,2 and 3 are E1,E2E_{1}, E_{2} and E3E_{3} respectively, then

A

E1>E2>E3E_1 >E_2>E_3

B

E3>E1>E2E_3 >E_1>E_2

C

E2>E1>E3E_2 >E_1>E_3

D

E3>E2>E1E_3 >E_2>E_1

Answer

E2>E1>E3E_2 >E_1>E_3

Explanation

Solution

For point outside dielectric sphere E=Q4πε0r2E=\frac{Q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} r^{2}}
For point inside dielectric sphere E=EsrRE=E_{s} \frac{r}{R}
Exact Ratio E1:E2:E3=2:4:1E_{1}: E_{2}: E_{3}=2: 4: 1
