Two metal spheres-each of radius-center-to-center separation

Reference no: EM13645850

Two metal spheres, each of radius 2.5 cm, have a center-to-center separation of 2.6 m. Sphere 1 has a charge of +1.4 x10^-8 C; sphere 2 has a charge of -2.7 x 10^-8C. Assume that the separation is large enough for us to assume that the charge on each sphere is uniformly distributed (the spheres donot affect each other). With V = 0 at infinity, calculate in volts (a) the potential at the point halfway between their centers and the potential on the surface of (b) sphere 1 and (c) sphere 2.
