Question

Positive charge is distributed uniformly over each of two spherical volumes with radius . One sphere of charge is centered at the origin and the other at (see the Figure (Figure 1) ).

a)Find the magnitude of the net electric field due to these two distributions of charge at on the x-axis.

Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R,pi, epsilon not and constants

b)Find the magnitude of the net electric field due to these two distributions of charge at on the x-axis.

Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R ,pi, epsilon not and constants.

Explanation / Answer

The charge of Q around the origin in sphere R will cancel out so there will be 0 effect from this one. The sphere of charge Q at 2R will act as a point charge of Q charge at 2R E = (1/(4peo))(Q/(2R)^2)
