$A$ point charge of magnitude $+ 1\,\mu C$ is fixed at $(0, 0, 0)$. An isolated uncharged spherical conductor is fixed with its center at $(4, 0, 0)$. The potential and the induced electric field at the center of the sphere are:

  • A
    $1.8 \times 10^5\,V$ and $-5.625 \times 10^6\,V/m$
  • B
    $0\,V$ and $0\,V/m$
  • C
    $2.25 \times 10^5\,V$ and $-5.625 \times 10^6\,V/m$
  • D
    $2.25 \times 10^5\,V$ and $0\,V/m$

Consider an initially neutral hollow conducting spherical shell with inner radius $r$ and outer radius $2r$. $A$ point charge $+Q$ is now placed inside the shell at a distance $r/2$ from the centre. The shell is then grounded by connecting the outer surface to the earth. $P$ is an external point at a distance $2r$ from the point charge $+Q$ on the line passing through the centre and the point charge $+Q$ as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the force on a test charge $+q$ placed at $P$ will be
