A point charge Q is placed inside a cavity within a solid isolated conducting sphere. Consider points A, B and C as shown in the figure, where the magnitudes of the electric fields are $\displaystyle \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{A}}$, $\displaystyle \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{B}}$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{C}}$, respectively. The points B and C are at the same distance from the center of the solid sphere. The correct option is :
