Physics

A metal sphere carrying an evenly distributed charge will havespherical equipotential surfaces surrounding it. Suppose thesphere❝s radius is 52.5cmand it carries a total charge of +1.45μC.

A)
Calculate the potential of the sphere❝s surface.(with theappropriate)


B)
You want to draw equipotential surfaces at intervals of 500V

outside the sphere❝s surface. Calculate the distance between thefirst and the second equipotential surfaces, and between the 20thand 21st equipotential surfaces.
