Answer:
a) -2.516 × 10⁻⁴ V
b) -1.33 × 10⁻³ V
Explanation:
The electric field inside the sphere can be expressed as:
The potential at a distance can be represented as:
V(r) - V(0) =
V(r) - V(0) = ₀
V(r) = ₀
Given that:
q = +3.83 fc = 3.83 × 10⁻¹⁵ C
r = 0.56 cm
= 0.56 × 10⁻² m
R = 1.29 cm
= 1.29 × 10⁻² m
E₀ = 8.85 × 10⁻¹² F/m
Substituting our values; we have:
= -2.15 × 10⁻⁴ V
The difference between the radial distance and center can be expressed as:
V(r) - V(0) =
V(r) - V(0) =
V(r) =
V(r) =
V(r)
V(r) = -0.00133
V(r) = - 1.33 × 10⁻³ V
