Statement I: An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere. The flux of the electric field through the sphere is zero but the electric field is not zero anywhere in the sphere.
Statement II: If \(R\) is the radius of a solid metallic sphere and \(Q\) be the total charge on it. The electric field at any point on the spherical surface of radius \(r~(<R)\) is zero but the electric flux passing through this closed spherical surface of radius \(r\) is not zero. 
1. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
2. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are false
4. Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

A spherically symmetric charge distribution is considered with charge density varying as
\(\rho(r)= \begin{cases}\rho_0\left(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{r}{R}\right) & \text { for } r \leq R \\ \text { Zero } & \text { for } r>R\end{cases}\)
where \(r(r<R)\) is the distance from the centre \(O\) (as shown in the figure). The electric field at point \(P\) will be:
        
1. \(\frac{\rho_0 {r}}{4 \varepsilon_0}\left(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{r}{R}\right) \)
2. \(\frac{\rho_0 {r}}{3 \varepsilon_0}\left(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{{r}}{R}\right) \)
3. \(\frac{\rho_0{r}}{4 \varepsilon_0}\left(1-\frac{{r}}{{R}}\right) \)
