    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    I might be confusing myself. There's only two electric fields to choose from and I've used both of them and they are both wrong apparently. I'm looking for the charge of c. But am I missing something? Like c is the opposite of a?

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    Omg so C is zero and the net charge for b 4.00??

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    I found C by doing 3600(0.2m)^2/ (8.998x10^9) = 1.6x10^-8

    Electric potential and field of a charged ring at a point on the axis

    I redid a and I got 1.8x10^3 V from ΔV= Kq/r from which it is (8.998x10^9)(10*10^-9)/ (0.05m)

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    My mistake. C) I got 1.6x10^-8.. changed it to 1.6x10^-9 to match D. B) (1.6x10^-9) + (6.0x10^-9) = 7.6 x 10^-9 nC

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    For a I got -4.00x10^-9 nC B) 3800 N/C from 3600 N/C + 200 N/C C) 0 nC from q= 0 N/C (0.2 m)^2 / (8.998x10^9) D) 6 x 10^-9 nC from 200 N/C (0.5 m)^2 / (8.998 x 10^9)

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    Ok, I changed my answer from b to answer d. I solved for C and got -7.96x10^-11 from q(inner)= -Q(i used my answer from a to get this Q) / 16pi(0.02)^2. And I got my net charge for b to be 5.48x10^-9 after adding c and d together

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    Then for c it is 0 because it is the conductor and for d I just used the same as the other one and got 4x106-9

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    For b I got Q= 5.56x10^-9 because I used E=kQ/r^2 and solved for Q to get Q= Er^2/k and used the charged found on 50 cm, the 200 N/C and plugged everything into its respectful places

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    So use flux? That would mean that Φ=EdS* Q/ε(o)?
  11. S

    Electric potential and field of a charged ring at a point on the axis

    So I would use the electric potential equation to get a correct? Just fill what is known? So U=(8.998x10^9)(10x10^-6)(0.05) / (0.02)? Or since you asked what is the relationship. Would it be equal of each other?
  12. S

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    So what equation would I use to get that? E or U?

    Charge on insulating sphere and conducting shell using Gauss' law

    Homework Statement A solid insulating sphere of radius 5.0 cm shown in blue has a uniform charge density throughout its volume. Concentric with this sphere is a conducting thick hollow spherical shell of inner radius 20.0 cm and outer radius 25.0 cm shown in grey. The electric field at a point...

    How Is Physics 2 Treating You in College?

    Nice to meet anyone who reads this. This is my first time here so I hope that I get to learn a lot since I'm in physics 2 at my college :) Thank you!
