Spherical Capacitors: Two Thin-Walled Concentric Conducting Spheres of Radii 5

question 5

Essay

Spherical capacitors: Two thin-walled concentric conducting spheres of radii 5.0 cm and 10 cm have a potential difference of 100 V between them. (k = 1/4πε₀ = 8.99 × 10⁹ N ∙ m²/C²)
(a) What is the capacitance of this combination?
(b) What is the charge carried by each sphere?
