A spherical conductor of radius $10\, cm$ has a charge of $3.2 \times 10^{-7} \,C$ distributed uniformly. What is the magnitude of electric field at a point $15 \,cm$ from the centre of the sphere?
$\left(\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}=9 \times 10^{9} Nm ^{2} / C ^{2}\right)$
$1.28 \times 10^{7} N / C$
$1.28 \times 10^{4} N / C$
$1.28 \times 10^{5} N / C$
$1.28 \times 10^{6} N / C$
In the figure, a very large plane sheet of positive charge is shown. $P _{1}$ and $P _{2}$ are two points at distance $l$ and $2 \,l$ from the charge distribution. If $\sigma$ is the surface charge density, then the magnitude of electric fields $E_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ at $P _{1}$ and $P _{2}$ respectively are
Consider a sphere of radius $R$ with charge density distributed as :
$\rho(r) =k r$, $r \leq R $
$=0$ for $r> R$.
$(a)$ Find the electric field at all points $r$.
$(b)$ Suppose the total charge on the sphere is $2e$ where e is the electron charge. Where can two protons be embedded such that the force on each of them is zero. Assume that the introduction of the proton does not alter the negative charge distribution.
A hollow metal sphere of radius $R$ is uniformly charged. The electric field due to the sphere at a distance r from the centre
According to Gauss’ Theorem, electric field of an infinitely long straight wire is proportional to
