Question

Electric charge is uniformly distributed o the surface of a spherical balloon . show how electric intensity and electrical potential vary - (a) on the surface , (b) inside and (c) outside

Answer 1

Electric intensity and potential

Explanation:

a) Given that the electric charge is uniformly distributed on the surface of the spherical balloon, we know that the electric intensity and its potential will remain constant on the surface.

b) But inside the balloon, there is no electric charge, electric field is 0 and potential will remain constant.

c) Outside the balloon, taking the distance of the point from the center of the sphere to be r, we get:

E is directly proportional to 1/r²

V is directly proportional to 1/r

Answer 2

Explanation:

Answer:

1) on the surface
