Answer:
Option A is correct (0) ( The electric field at the center of circular charged ring is zero)
Explanation:
Option A is correct (0) ( The electric field at the center of circular charged ring is zero)
The reason why electric field at the center of circular charged ring is zero because the fields at the center of the circular ring due to any point are cancelled by electric fields of another point which is at 180 degree to that point i.e opposite to that charge.
Answer: a) 0
The electric field from opposite directions at the centre of the circular ring cancel each other out and give a resultant of zero
Explanation:
Given that the ring is perfectly circular with radius b which has a uniform distributed charge q around it.
The electric field experienced at the centre of the ring from opposite directions are given as
E1 = kₑq/b²
E2 = -kₑq/b²
It experience the two electric field E1 and E2 from opposite directions at the centre. So the resultant electric field is given by:
E = E1 + E2
E = kₑq/b² - kₑq/b²
E = 0
The electric field from opposite directions at the centre of the circular ring cancel each other out and give a resultant of zero
