The volume charge density in a spherical ball of radius $R$ varies with distance $r$ from the centre as $\rho(r)=\rho_0\left[1-\left(\frac{r}{R}\right)^3\right]$,where $\rho_0$ is a constant. The radius at which the electric field would be maximum is

  • A
    $\frac{R}{2^{1/3}}$
  • B
    $R$
  • C
    $\frac{R}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{R^{1/3}}{2}$
