A hollow sphere of radius a has uniform surface charge density σ and is centered at the origin. It sits inside a bigger sphere, also centered at the origin, with radius b > a and uniform surface charge density −σ. Because of the spherical symmetry, the electric field will have the form () = E(r) r̂, where negative E(r) corresponds to an electric field pointing towards the origin, and positive E(r) corresponds to a field pointing away. What is E(r) for r < a? (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: ε0.)

A metal sphere centered at the origin has a surface charge density that has a magnitude of 24.9 nC/m2 and a radius less than 2.00 m.

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...
