For number 5, the charge induced on the surface should be equal to the charge that is inducing the charge on the surface. So if you have a charge q in the center, then the inner surface will have a charge -q induced on it. The area of the surface is . The charge density is \frac{-q}{4\pi...

I do not understand these 2 problems at all... 5. a conducting hollow sphere carries a zero net charge. in the center of the sphere there is a point charge of +5.3C. the inner and outer surfaces of the conducting sphere are concentric, and their radius's are 3.2m and 3.7m, respectively...

I do not understand how to do 5 or 6 still. Can you be of more assistance?

Ok so background story, everyone failed an exam in my physics 2 class, so as a way to gain points we had to complete a packet of 35 physics2 problems, and i am having issues with only 6 problems. 1. Does a charged particle in an electric field always move along a field line? if yes, explain; if...
