Question

Part A

What is the electric field inside the metallic sphere for r < R?

Express your answer in terms of variables Q, r, and R. Combine all numerical values together into one multiplier.

E inside = ?

Part B

What is the electric field outside the metallic sphere for r > R?

Express your answer in terms of variables Q, r, and R. Combine all numerical values together into one multiplier

E ouside = ?

Part C

What is the electric potential at the surface of the metallic sphere? (r=R)

Express your answer in terms of variables Q, r, and R. Combine all numerical values together into one multiplier.

VR = ?

Part D

What is the electric potential at the center of the metallic sphere? (r=0)

Express your answer in terms of variables Q, r, and R. Combine all numerical values together into one multiplier.

Explanation / Answer

Gauss's law. Electric field x closed surface area thru which the E field lines pass = enclosed charge inside that surface area / permittivity constant.

So ? = Q / V, Q=?V So flux = E field x Surface area of spere = ?V / e0
