Q54 / 54 · JEE Advanced 2020 (Paper 1) · Physics

A circular disc of radius R carries surface charge density σ(r)=σ01-rR, where σ0 is a constant and r is the distance from the center of the disc. Electric flux through a large spherical surface that encloses the charged disc completely is ϕ0. Electric flux through another spherical surface of radius R4 and concentric with the disc is ϕ. Then the ratio ϕ0ϕ is

Correct answer: 6.4

Solution

Consider a ring element of radius r, thickness in disc charge of element dQ=2πrdrσ ⇒dQ=2πrσdr

Total charge, Q=∫2πrσ01-rRdr

Q=2πσ0r22-r33R

ϕ0= charge upto Rϵ0=2πσ0R22-R33R

ϕ= charge upto R4ϵ0=2πσ0R216×2-R364×3R

ϕ0ϕ=12-13132-1192=16×32×65=6.4

Hence, the correct answer is 6.4.
