Immediately outside a conducting sphere(i.e. on the surface) of unknown charge Q and radius R the electric potential is 190 V, and 10.0 cm further from the sphere, the potential is 140 V. What is the magnitude of the charge Q on the sphere

Respuesta :

Answer:

Q = 5.9 nC (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Further distance = 10 cm

Electric potential(V) = 190 v

Potential difference(V1) = 140 v

Find:

Magnitude of the charge Q

Computation:

V = KQ / r

190 = KQ / r.............Eq1

V1  = KQ / (r+10)

140 = KQ / (r+10) ............Eq2

From Eq2 and Eq1

r = 28 cm = 0.28 m

So,

190 = KQ / r

190 = (9×10⁹)(Q) / 0.28

53.2 = (9×10⁹)(Q)

5.9111 = (10⁹)(Q)

Q = 5.9 nC (Approx)
