Question

2. The electric field inside a nonconducting sphere of radius R, with charge spread uniformly throughout its volume, is radially directed and has magnitude: E(r) = qR^3 / 4??r^3 a. Taking V=0 at the center of the sphere, find the potential V(r) inside the sphere. b. What is the difference in electric potential between a point on the surface and the sphere's center.?

Step 1

We are given the electric field inside the sphere as $E(r) = 4\pi e r^3$. Since the electric field is radially directed, we can write it as $E(r) = 4\pi e r^3 \hat{r}$. Show more…
