Question 39






A solid metallic sphere of radius a carries total charge Q. No other charges are nearby. The electric field just outside its surface is keQ/a^2 radially outward. At this close point, the uniformly charged surface of the sphere looks exactly like a uniform flat sheet of charge. Is the electric field here given  fig-ch24-39
