An isolated charged conducting sphere has a radius R = 10.0 cm. At a distance of r = 19.0 cm from the center of the sphere the electric field due to the sphere has a magnitude of E = 4.90 x 104 N/C.(a) What is its surface charge density (in μC/m²)?What is the electric field outside of a spherical charge distribution? From this, what is the charge? What is the surface area of a sphere? μC/m²(b) What is its capacitance (in pF)?PF(c) What If? A larger sphere of radius 20.0 cm is now added so as to be concentric with the first sphere. What is the capacitance (in pF) of the two-sphere system?PF

Step 1: To find the surface charge density, we need to find the total charge on sphere first. Given…
