Consider an atom with atomic number $Z$ as consisting of a positive point charge at the centre and surrounded by a distribution of negative electricity uniformly distributed within a sphere of radius $R$. The electric field at a point inside the atom at a distance $r$ from the centre is

This question has Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the statements,choose the one that best describes the two statements.
An insulating solid sphere of radius $R$ has a uniformly positive charge density $\rho$. As a result of this uniform charge distribution,there is a finite value of electric potential at the centre of the sphere,at the surface of the sphere,and also at a point outside the sphere. The electric potential at infinity is zero.
Statement-$1$: When a charge $q$ is taken from the centre to the surface of the sphere,its potential energy changes by $\frac{q \rho R^2}{6 \epsilon_0}$.
Statement-$2$: The electric field at a distance $r (r < R)$ from the centre of the sphere is $\frac{\rho r}{3 \epsilon_0}$.

For a uniformly charged plane sheet, the variation of electric field $(E)$ with distance $(d)$ is correctly shown graphically in graph:
