Question
Consider an uncharged, conducting hollow spherical shell. The electric field on the inside surface of the spherical shell is measured to be directed towards the inner shell wall and varies in magnitude over the spherical shell's inside surface. It is known that the only charge in the hollow cavity inside the spherical shell is a point charge with magnitude q What is the sign of the charge q? What can you say about the position of the charge? The charge is zero, so position doesn't matter. The charge is in the center of the spherical shell. A point charge cannot create a charge distribution on the inside surface of the spherical shell which varies in magnitude. The charge is outside of the spherical shell. The charge is inside the spherical shell but not at the center of the spherical shell. What is the net electric flux through the spherical shell? Phi = 2q Phi = q/epsilon0 Phi = 2q/epsilon0 Phi = q/2 Phi = q/2epsilon0 Phi = q Phi = 0 What can you say about the charge distribution on the outside surface of the spherical shell.? The charge distribution is negative and is not uniform. The charge distribution is positive and is not uniform. The charge distribution is negative and is uniform. The charge distribution is positive and is uniform. The charge distribution is zero.Explanation / Answer
