Question

The dome of a Van de Graaff generator receives a charge of 2.6 × 10-4 C Find the strength of the electric field in the following situations Hint: Review properties of conductors in electrostatic equilibrium. Also, use the points on the surface are outside a spherically symmetric charge distribution; the total charge may be considered to be located at the center of the sphere.) (a) inside the dome N/C (b) at the surface of the dome, assuming it has a radius of 1.3 m 3200000 Х Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. N/C (c) 6.4 m from the center of the dome 0.72e5x Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. N/C
