Question
A disk of radius R is sprayed with a charged paint so that the resulting charge density varies continually with radial distance, r, from the center of the disc according to
σ = σ0 r/R
Observation point P is located on the symmetry axis at a distance hℎ above the plane of the disc, as shown.
If R=5.65 cm, h=10.97 cm and σ0=7.03 nC/m2, then what is the potential, in volts, at observation point P?
