NEET Physics Electric Field Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The electric field inside a uniformly charged thin shell is zero.
Reason (R): The flux through a Gaussian surface inside the shell is zero.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The electric field inside a uniformly charged thin shell is zero because the flux through a Gaussian surface inside the shell is zero, as derived from Gauss's law.
