Question

A-3.07 μC charge is placed at the center of a conducting spherical shell, and a total charge of +7.25 μC is placed on the shell itself. Calculate the total charge on the outer surface of the conductor.

Answer 1

Answer:

4.18 μC

Explanation:

given,

charge place at the center of conducting spherical shell = -3.07 μC                    

total charge place in the shell itself = +7.25 μC                        

to calculate charge on the outer surface = ?                          

total charge on the outer surface = +7.25 μC - 3.07 μC

                                                    = 4.18 μC

hence, the charge on the outer surface of the shell is 4.18 μC
