A conducting sphere with radius R is centered at the origin. The sphere is grounded having an electric potential of zero. A point charge Q is brought toward the sphere along the z- axis and is placed at the point ะ-8. As the point charge approaches the sphere mobile charge is drawn from the ground into the sphere. This induced charge arranges itself over the surface of the sphere, not in a uniform way, but rather in such a way...

Select Tru or False. 1. A conducting sphere with charge Q at equilibrium has zero E field inside it. The E field outside is the same as that of a point charge Q, E=keQ/r2. The potential outside it is the same as that of a point charge Q. V= keQ/r. (r is the distance to the center). The potential inside the conducting sphere is equal to the potential at its surface.
