Question

9. 0/1.5 points | Previous Answers My Notes A total charge of 76.0 /C is uniformly distributed on the surface of a thin spherical shell of radius 26.0 cm. What is the magnitude of the electric field at the following distances from the center of the spherical shell? (a) 5.00 cm Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. N/C (b) 44.0 cm Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. N/C Need Help? Read It Submit Answer Save Progress Practice Another Version

Explanation / Answer

A. From gauss law, we know that there is NULL electric field at any point inside the shell, so

E= 0 N/C

----------

B. For any outside point shell acts as a point source, taking distance feom the cemter of the shell

E= k q/R^2

= 9*10^9*76*10^-6/0.44^2

= 3.533*10^6 N/C

-------------

Comment in case any doubt..goodluck
