Chapter 22, Problem 22.19E

A hollow, conducting sphere with an outer radius of 0.250 m and an inner radius of 0.200 m has a uniform surface charge density of +6.37 × 10−6C/m2. A charge of −0.500 μC is now introduced at the center of the cavity inside the sphere. (a) What is the new charge density on the outside of the sphere? (b) Calculate the strength of the electric field just outside the sphere. (c) What is the electric flux through a spherical surface just inside the inner surface of the sphere?

A small conducting ball that carries a charge of 30.0 nC is located at the center of an electrically neutral hollow conducting sphere with an inner radius of 100 mm and an outer radius of 150 mm. What are the surface charge density (a) on the sphere's inner surface and (b) on its outer surface? (c) Determine the electric field as a function of r, the radial distance from the center of the sphere.
Charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere of radius R = 4.00 cm. At a distance of r = 8.00 cm from the center of the sphere, the electric field due to the charge distribution has magnitude E = 940 N/C. What are (a) the volume charge density for the sphere and (b) the electric field at a distance of 2.00 cm from the sphere’s center?
A solid non-conducting sphere of radius R carries a uniform charge density. At a radial distance r 1  = 6R  the electric field has a magnitude E 0. What is the magnitude of the electric field at a radial distance r 2 = R/6 as a multiple of E 0 ?
