PHY 102 Test Compilation PHY 102 8 Objective Question

Question

Surface charge density on sphere radius 1 cm is 796 μC/m². Total charge?
Options
A 1.00 μC
Correct Answer
B 1.15 μC
C 1.5 μC
D 0.8 μC
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Q = σ × 4πr² = 796×10⁻⁶ × 4π×0.01² = 796e-6 × 4π×1e-4 = 796e-6 × 1.2566e-3 = 1.00×10⁻⁶ C = 1.00 μC.

Hint

Q = σ × 4πr².
