Homework Statement
A solid ball of radius rb has a uniform charge density ρ.
What is the magnitude of the electric field E(r) at a distance r>r_b from the center of the ball?
Homework Equations
E(r) = (Q/ε)*1/Area
The Attempt at a Solution
If Q=ρrb
and Area = (4/3)πr3,
then E(r) = \frac{ρr<sub>b</sub>}{ε*(4/3)*πr<sup>3</sup>}
However,
the correct answer is in the image attached.
E(r)=
