JEE Advanced 2020 — Paper 1 — Question 17

A circular disc of radius RR carries surface charge density σ0(r)=σ0(1−rR)\sigma_{0}(r)=\sigma_{0}\left(1-\frac{r}{R}\right), where σ0\sigma_{0} 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\phi_{0}. Electric flux through another spherical surface of radius R4\frac{R}{4} and concentric with the disc is ϕ\phi. Then the ratio ϕ0ϕ\frac{\phi_{0}}{\phi} is ____\_\_\_\_

Step-by-step solution

Total charge on disc

q0=∫0Rσ0(1−rR)2πrdr=σ⋅2π[∫0Rrdr−1R∫0Rr2dr]\mathrm{q}_{0}=\int_{0}^{\mathrm{R}} \sigma_{0}\left(1-\frac{r}{R}\right) 2 \pi r d r=\sigma \cdot 2 \pi\left[\int_{0}^{\mathrm{R}} \mathrm{rdr}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}} \int_{0}^{\mathrm{R}} \mathrm{r}^{2} \mathrm{dr}\right]

=2πσ[R22−R23]=2 \pi \sigma\left[\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}}{2}-\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}}{3}\right]

q0=2πσ[R26]…(1)\begin{gathered} \mathrm{q}_{0}=2 \pi \sigma\left[\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}}{6}\right] …(1) \end{gathered}

Change enclosed by second sphere

q0=σ⋅2π[∫0R/4rdr−1R∫0R/4r2dr]\mathrm{q}_{0}=\sigma \cdot 2 \pi\left[\int_{0}^{\mathrm{R} / 4} r d r-\frac{1}{R} \int_{0}^{\mathrm{R} / 4} r^{2} d r\right]

=2πσ[R232−R2192]=2 \pi \sigma\left[\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}}{32}-\frac{\mathrm{R}^{2}}{192}\right]

q0=2πσ[5R2192]\mathrm{q}_{0}=2 \pi \sigma\left[\frac{5 \mathrm{R}^{2}}{192}\right]

⇒ϕ0ϕ=q0q=R2/65R2/192=1925×6=325=6.40\Rightarrow \frac{\phi_{0}}{\phi}=\frac{q_{0}}{q}=\frac{R^{2} / 6}{5 R^{2} / 192}=\frac{192}{5 \times 6}=\frac{32}{5}=6.40
