basically u do know that electric field inside a hollow sphere or a conductign solid sphere is always zero due to its surface charge and any other outside charge right? so electric field on surface = k * 2q/(2R)^2 so 1st option seems right

yeah 1st option i got answer is ACD cant do C part

for it basically u need to understand that potential at C due to inner point charge and the charges induced on inner surface of the sphere will cancel each other out so that leaves us with potential due to outer surface + potential due to 2q=0 sinc net potential at C should be zero cuz grounded

So you get q'=-q where q' is the charge bcz of earthing Okk If you had to calculate B part what would you do Before switching the field inside isnt zero right?, because of the charge q
