Positive charge is distributed in a sphere of radius R that is centered at the origin. Inside the sphere, the electric
field is Ē(r) = kr-1/4 f, where k is a positive constant. There is no charge outside the sphere.
a) How is the charge distributed inside the sphere? In particular, find an equation for the charge density, p.
b) Determine the electric field, E(r), for r > R (outside the sphere).
c) What is the potential difference between the center of the sphere (r = 0) and the surface of the sphere
(r = R)?
d) What is the energy stored in this electric charge configuration?
Electric Field Integrals
Positive electric charge is uniformly distributed along the y-axis with a linear charge density l.
Consider the case where charge is distributed only between points y = +a and y = -a. For points between the +x-axis, graph the x-component of the electric field as a function of x, Ex (x), for values x = a/2 and x = 4a.
Consider instead the case where charge is distributed along the entire y-axis with the same charge density l. Using the same graph as in part (a), plot the x-component of the electric field, Ex (x), as function of x for values of x between x = a/2 and x = 4a.
