The term ‘volume charge density’ is valid for a solid conducting sphere.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was posed to me in examination.I want to ask this question from Continuous Charge Distribution topic in chapter Charges and Fields of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

The correct answer is (b) False

Easiest explanation: We know that in the case of any conducting MATERIAL, the charge is always distributed on its OUTER surface instead of distribution THROUGHOUT the material. Therefore, the word volume charge density doesn’t MAKE any sense in the case of the conducting sphere. Instead, we can use the term surface charge density.
