Question

B) What is the magnitude E1 of the electric field E at radius r= 12.7cm , just outside the inner sphere?

C) What is the magnitude of E? at r= 14.5cm , just inside the outer sphere?

please answer in 20 mins

A spherical capacitor is formed from two concentric spherical conducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has a radius of ra = 12.3cm , and the outer sphere has a radius of rB = 15.0cm . A potential difference of 120V is applied to the capacitor. B) What is the magnitude E1 of the electric field E at radius r= 12.7cm , just outside the inner sphere? C) What is the magnitude of E? at r= 14.5cm , just inside the outer sphere? please answer in 20 mins

Explanation / Answer

Capacitance of spherical capacitor is = 4pieo( ab/b-a)

C = 4*3.14* 8.85e-12*(0.124*0.148)/(0.148-0.124)

C = 85 pF

charge Q = CV

Q = 85e-12 * 120

Q = 10.2 nC
---------------------------------------

E = Kq/r^2

E = 9e9 *10.2e-9/*0.127^2

E = 5.691*10^3 N/C
---------------------------

E = 9e9*10.2e-9/(0.145^2)

E = 4.366*10^3 N/C
