If some charge is given to a solid metallic sphere, the field inside remains zero and by Gauss's law all the charge resides on the surface. Now, suppose that Coulomb's force between two charges varies as $1 / r^{3}$. Then, for a charged solid metallic sphere

A solid spherical conducting shell has inner radius a and outer radius $2a$. At the center of the shell is located a point charge $+Q$. What must the excess charge of the shell be in order for the charge density on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell to be exactly equal ?

A thin metallic spherical shell contains a charge $Q$ on it. A point charge $+q$ is placed at the centre of the shell and another charge $q'$ is placed outside it as shown in fig. All  the three charges are positive. The force on the central charge due to the shell is :-

If $q$ is the charge per unit area on the surface of a conductor, then the electric field intensity at a point on the surface is

Consider an initially neutral hollow conducting spherical shell with inner radius $r$ and outer radius $2 r$. A point charge $+Q$ is now placed inside the shell at a distance $r / 2$ from the centre. The shell is then grounded by connecting the outer surface to the earth. $P$ is an external point at a distance $2 r$ from the point charge $+Q$ on the line passing through the centre and the point charge $+Q$ as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the force on a test charge $+q$ placed at $P$ will be
