Finding electric potential with non-uniform charge density?
If the charge density was uniform, wouldn't the potential inside be equal to the potential of the surface? V=1/4pi epsilon * Q/R . But in this case the charge density is not uniform. Also it is a conducting shell so i think the electric field inside should be zero because of gauss law, there is...- solijoli

Finding electric potential with non-uniform charge density?
My question is what would be the integral boundaries for Vinside and Voutside. When you just integrate sin^2x dx you just get one result. How can you write for inside and for outside?- solijoli

Finding electric potential with non-uniform charge density?
We have a spherical shell. We want to find the electric potential everywhere. Given charge density σ=k*sinθ, k is constant. Also it is wanted from direct integration. V=1/4piε ∫σ/r da. How can we do this, please help? I thought because it is sphere da is in the direction of r so da=r^2sinθ dθ...- solijoli
