- 5. In the figure below, three hollow, concentric spherical conductors are charged as follows: The inner sphere carries a charge +4Q, the middle sphere carries a charge -20. and the outer sphere carries a charge +6Q. What is the charge on the outer surface of the middle sphere? Outer sphere (A) Zero (C) +4Q (E) +2Q (B)-Q (D)-2Q Middle sphere field at a point that is 0.50 m from the center of the sphere is 15x10' N/C and is directed 6. Electric charge is uniformly distributed inside a sphere of radius 0.30 m. The electric radially outward.

Electrically neutral objects cannot exert an electrical force on each other, but they can exert a gravitational force on each other. A) True B) False 8. A charge of uniform volume density (40 nC/m3) fills a cube with 8.0-cm edges. What is the total electric flux through the surfaces of this cube in (N.m²/C)?

The spheres that carry the charges 9₁ and 92 are brought into contact. Then they are separated. After that, one of those two spheres is brought into contact with the third sphere that carries the charge 93; those two are then separated as well.
