14. Due to nonuniform mechanical strength, when a conducting sphere is
given a charge Q, the clectrostatic forces make a small hemispherical
bulge on its surface. The radius r of the bulge is negligibly small as
compared to the radius R of the conducting sphere.
R
(a) Can you assume charge on the bulge distributed uniformly?
(b) Estimate charge q on the bulge.
(c) Find the change in capacitance AC due to this bulge.
