NEET Physics Electric Field MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about electric fields is correct?
The electric field inside a thin spherical shell is zero at all points.
The electric field at a point due to a point charge is constant regardless of distance.
The electric field produced by a dipole decreases faster than 1/r².
A test charge can be any size without affecting the source charge's position.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, the electric field inside a thin spherical shell of uniform surface charge density is zero at all points. The electric field due to a point charge does depend on distance, and a test charge must be negligibly small to not disturb the source charge.
