A charge $$+q$$ is placed at a distance of $$d$$ from a point O. A conducting body surrounds point O such that $$q$$ remains outside. The electric field at O due to the induced charge is

A

zero

B

$$\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0}\frac{q}{d^2}$$ directed towards the charge $$q$$

C

$$\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0}\frac{q}{d^2}$$ directed away from the charge $$q$$

D

data insufficient
