\( \sigma \) is the uniform surface charge density of a thin spherical shell of radius \( R \). The electric field at any point on the surface of the spherical shell is:
\( \dfrac{\sigma}{4 \, \varepsilon_{0}} \)
\( \dfrac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_{0} R} \)
\( \dfrac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_{0}} \)
\( \dfrac{\sigma}{2 \, \varepsilon_{0}} \)
