Homework Statement


A charge distributed uniformly over 1 face of the circular disk, find the surface charge density ?


well i know density for surface charge is S= charge/area, the area for face of 1 circular disk is what ? 2pir ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
area of a circle is pi*r^2
what u have is the circumference
