Question

A spherical conductor has a net positive charge. Describe how charge is distributed around the sphere's surface All positive charge is on the sphere surface, and all negative charge is at the center. Positive and negative charge is spread equally around the sphere's surface. The net positive charge is spread evenly throughout the sphere's volume. The net positive charge is spread evenly around the sphere's surface. How can the direction of the electric field created by an electron be correctly described? The field circulates around the electron in a plane perpendicular the electron's spin. The field points away from and towards the electron. The field points away from the electron. The field points towards the electron. A test charge is placed near two other charges. How does the total force on the first charge relate to the individual forces from the two other charges? Total force is the vector sum of the individual forces. Total force is the vector product of the individual forces. Total force is the average of the individual forces. Total force is the vector difference of the individual forces. What best describes how electrons move inside conductors and insulators? Electrons move freely in conductors and in insulators. Electrons do not move easily in conductors or insulators. Electrons move easily in conductors but not in insulators. Electrons do not move easily in conductors but move freely in insulators.

Explanation / Answer

7) for the conducting sphere , as the electric field inside the conductor is zero

all the charge on the sphere will reside on the outer surface

the correct option is option 4 )

8)

as the electron is negatively charged the electric field will be towards the electron ,

the correct option is

theh field points towards the electron

9)

as electric force follows superposition principle ,

the net electric force is sum of indivisual force

option (1)

10)

inside the condutor , electons can move freely but not in the insulator

the correct option is (3)
