Question 82

Short Answer

In the figure, a conducting sphere of radius r1=0.050 mr _ { 1 } = 0.050 \mathrm {~m} is placed at the center of a spherical conducting shell of inner radius r2=0.100 mr _ { 2 } = 0.100 \mathrm {~m} and outer radius r3=0.140 mr _ { 3 } = 0.140 \mathrm {~m} . The inner sphere carries an excess charge of 4.0nC- 4.0 \mathrm { nC } . The outer spherical shell carries a net excess charge of 3.0nC3.0 \mathrm { nC } . Calculate the magnitude of the electric field at the following distances rr from the center of the spheres. (k=1/4πε0=9.0×109 Nm2/C2)\left( k = 1 / 4 \pi \varepsilon _ { 0 } = 9.0 \times 10 ^ { 9 } \mathrm {~N} \cdot \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } / \mathrm { C } ^ { 2 } \right)
(a) r=0.075 mr = 0.075 \mathrm {~m} (in the air space between spheres),
(b) r=0.120 mr = 0.120 \mathrm {~m} (in the metal of the spherical shell), and
(c) r=0.200 mr = 0.200 \mathrm {~m} (outside the spherical shell).
 In the figure, a conducting sphere of radius  r _ { 1 } = 0.050 \mathrm {~m}  is placed at the center of a spherical conducting shell of inner radius  r _ { 2 } = 0.100 \mathrm {~m}  and outer radius  r _ { 3 } = 0.140 \mathrm {~m} . The inner sphere carries an excess charge of  - 4.0 \mathrm { nC } . The outer spherical shell carries a net excess charge of  3.0 \mathrm { nC } . Calculate the magnitude of the electric field at the following distances  r  from the center of the spheres.  \left( k = 1 / 4 \pi \varepsilon _ { 0 } = 9.0 \times 10 ^ { 9 } \mathrm {~N} \cdot \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } / \mathrm { C } ^ { 2 } \right)  (a)  r = 0.075 \mathrm {~m}  (in the air space between spheres), (b)  r = 0.120 \mathrm {~m}  (in the metal of the spherical shell), and (c)  r = 0.200 \mathrm {~m}  (outside the spherical shell).
