Walker, Halliday & Resnick β Gauss' Law: Problem 3
3 An unknown charge sits on a conducting solid sphere of radius 10 cm. If the electric field 30 cm from the center of the sphere has the magnitude $3.0 \times 10^3$ N/C and is directed radially inward, (a) what is the net charge on the sphere? and (b) what is the charge density?
π Solution Approach
Given: 10 cm, 30 cm
Find: (a) what is the net charge on the sphere? and; (b) what is the charge density?
