    If isolated point charge +q is placed inside the Faraday cage. Its surface must have charge equal to:

    A) Zero

    B) +q

    C) -q

    D) +2q

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Option [c] is correct Explanation: If a charge is placed inside an ungrounded Faraday shield without touching the walls of the internal face of the shield becomes charged with - q, and + q accumulates on the outer face of the shield. If the cage is grounded, the excess charges will be neutralized by the ground connection.
