Answer:
[tex]\sigma=0.014\ C/m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
The radius of sphere, r = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Net charge carries, q = 7.5 µC = 7.5 × 10⁻⁶ C
We need to find the surface charge density on the sphere. Net charge per unit area is called the surface charge density. So,
[tex]\sigma=\dfrac{7.5\times 10^{-6}}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \times (0.05)^3}\\\\=0.014\ C/m^2[/tex]
So, the surface charge density on the sphere is [tex]0.014\ C/m^2[/tex].
