$A$ sphere of radius $R$ has a volume charge density $\rho = k r$, where $r$ is the distance from the center of the sphere and $k$ is a constant. The magnitude of the electric field at the surface of the sphere is given by ($\varepsilon_{0} =$ permittivity of free space):

  • A
    $\frac{4 \pi k R^{4}}{3 \varepsilon_{0}}$
  • B
    $\frac{k R^{2}}{4 \varepsilon_{0}}$
  • C
    $\frac{k R^{2}}{\varepsilon_{0}}$
  • D
    $\frac{k R^{2}}{2 \varepsilon_{0}}$
