- Homework Statement
- Q) To a very rough approximation a heavy atom can be pictured to be a spherical with
charge ‘+Q’and radius ‘a’ embedded in a much larger sphere of negative charge (the
electrons). This negative sphere will have a radius ‘b’ (the atomic radius) and charge
distributed uniformly throughout its volume will be ‘–Q’. Find electric field intensity for
any radius larger than ‘a’.
- Relevant Equations
- E= (1/4pi E0)* (Q/R)
I tried to use the formula for electric field intensity but I feel like something is missing.
