Answer:
(a) (At 0.100m outside, r = 0.450 + 0.100 = 0.550)
E = kQ/r2 = 8.99 x 109 x 0.250 x 10-9 / (0.550)2 = 2.2475/0.3025 = 7.43 C
(b) There is no electric field inside a conductive charged sphere because of the assumption of Gauss’ Law. Charge is only uniformly distributed over the surface of sphere…
