Explanation / Answer

a) at, r<R1, Qin = Q


E = k*Q/r^2 <<<<<<<<---------Answer

b) at r = 0.5*R1

E = k*Qin/r^2

= k*Q/(0.5*R1)^2

= 4*k*Q/R1^2

= -4*9*10^9*35*10^-9/0.05^2

= -5.04*10^5 N/c <<<<<<<<---------Answer

c) rho = dQ/dV

dQ = rho*dV

= (A*r)*(4*pi*r^2)*dr

= (A*4*pi*r^3)*dr


Qin = Q + inegral dQ

= Q + inegral (A*4*pi*r^3)*dr

= Q + A*pi*r^4

= Q + A*pi*( (R1+R2/2)^4 - R1^4)

= -35*10^-9 + 21*10^-6*( (0.05+0.17)/2)^4 - 0.05^4)

= -32.06*10^-9 C


r = 0.5*(0.05+0.17)

= 0.11 m

E = k*Qin/r^2

= -9*10^9*32.06*10^-9/0.11^2

= -2.38*10^+4 N/c <<<<<<<<---------Answer


d) Qin = Q + inegral dQ

= Q + inegral (A*4*pi*r^3)*dr

= Q + A*pi*r^4

= Q + A*pi*( R2^4 - R1^4)

= -35*10^-9 + 21*10^-6*( 0.17^4 - 0.05^4)

= -17.6*10^-9 C

r = 2*R2

= 2*0.17

= 0.34 m

E = k*Qin/r^2

= -9*10^9*17.6*10^-9/0.34^2

= -1.37*10^3 N/c <<<<<<<<---------Answer
