In Figure (a) below, a particle of charge +Q produces an electric field of magnitude Epart at point P, at distance R from the particle. In Figure (b), that same amount of charge is spread uniformly along a circular arc that has radius R and subtends an angle 8. The charge on the arc produces an electric field of magnitude Earc at its center of curvature P. For what value of 0 (in º) does Earc = 0.75Epart?

Imagine that in a region in space you detect a spherical symmetric electric field that increases quadratically with the distance from the center, E (r) = a · r2 . er, where a is a constant. How is the the charge distributed in that region, i.e. find p (r). increases linearly radially outward decreases linearly radially outward uniform
There is a +5C charge at the center of a hollow sphere made of a perfect conductor. The hollow sphere has a net charge of +2C, an inner radius of 0.5 m and an outer radius of 0.75 m. Calculate the electric field as a function of distance from the +5C charge and the charge on each surface of the hollow sphere.
There are two concentric cylinders with R1= 0.0056 m and R2= 8R1 with a length of 6.1m. The internal cylinder charge is q=2.7nC and uniformly distributed, the external one is -3q also uniformly distributed. How much is the electric field at r= 4.4R1.
