Question

1. What is the electric field inside a solid conducting hollow shell?

2. What is the name of somewhat conducting sheet we use in this experiment? What will be the difference if we have used a good conducting surface instead? Will you get more voltage range on the graphite sheet or on the conducting surface that is replacing it? Remember, rest of the experimental setup including the voltage on the power supply is kept same.

3. At any point on an equipotential line, what is the angle that the electric field makes with the equipotential line?

Explanation / Answer

(1)electric field inside a hollow spherical shell is zero as the charge inside the shell=0

(3) angle between eletric field and the equipotential surface=90 degrees
