An infinite cylinder of radius R has a charge density given by p(r) = ar³, where r is the perpendicular distance from the axis of the cylinder, and a is a constant. Show that the electric field for r > R given by aRT E(r) : 7€or is the same as that obtained if all the charge is concentrated in an infinitely thin wire.
Q.4: Charge is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an infinitely ltong solid eylinder of radius R. a) Show that, at a distance rR. Note; Some Physical constants
A non-uniformiy charged insulating sphere has a volume charge density p that is expressed as p= Br where Bis a constant, and ris the radius from the center of the sphere. If the, the total charge of the sphere is Q and its maximum radius is R. What is the value for B? Sol. By definition, the volume charge density is expressed infinitesimally as p= where in is the infinitesimal charge and is the infinitesimal volume. so, we have p = dal - B So we can write this as dg = B dV But, dV = dr By substitution, we get the following dq = 4BT dr Using Integration operation and evaluating its limits, the equation, leads to Q = Rearranging, we get B =
