(b) Determine the charge required for d to become equal to 2R
A charged metal sphere of radius Rs and a charged, flat metal disk of radius Rp are connected by a long conducting wire.
The sphere has a charge Qs (assume it is uniformly distributed on its surface).
What is Qp, the charge on the disk (assume it is uniformly distributed on its surface)?
Give your answer in nC to at least three digits to avoid being counted off due to rounding.
