An electrostatic field in a region is radially outward with magnitude $E$ = $\alpha r$ , where $\alpha $ is a constant and $r$ is radial distance. The charge contained in a sphere of radius $R$ in this region (centred at the origin) is

  • A

    $\frac{2}{3}\pi {\varepsilon _0}\alpha {R^3}$

  • B

    $4\pi {\varepsilon _0}\alpha {R^3}$

  • C

    $8\pi {\varepsilon _0}\alpha {R^3}$

  • D

    $0$
