Question
Two non-conducting spheres of radii R1 and R2 and carrying uniform volume charge densities +ρ and -ρ, respectively, are placed such that they partially overlap, as shown in the figure. At all points in the overlapping region :-

Options
A.the electrostatic field is zero
B.the electrostatic potential is constant
C.the electrostatic field is constant in magnitude
D.the electrostatic field has same direction
Solution

Electric field at point

= constant in both magnitude and direction at every point of overlap region. Also E is non zero so potential is not same at all points.
