A conducting sphere of radius $10 \;cm$ has an unknown charge. If the electric field $20\; cm$ from the centre of the sphere is $1.5 \times 10^{3} \;N / C$ and points radially inward, what is the net charge (in $n\;C$) on the sphere?

  • A

    $3.33$

  • B

    $6.67$

  • C

    $8.97$

  • D

    $11.56$
