Question

A conducting sphere of radius R carries positive charge q.
Calculate the amount of work that would be required to move a small
positive test charge q0 slowly (a) from r = 5R to r = 3R; (b) from
r = 2R to r = 7R; (c) from r = 4R to r = R/2. In each case assume
that the presence of q0 has no effect on how the charge q is distributed
over the sphere.
