Question
) Electric charge is uniformly distributed inside a nonconducting sphere of radius 0.30 m. the electric field at a point P, which is 0.50 m from the center of the sphere, is 15,000 N/C and is directed radially outward. What is the maximum magnitude of the electric field due to this sphere?

Answer:
Explanation:
Point P is situated outside sphere . For a non conducting sphere , electric field outside sphere is given by the relation
E = k Q / d²
15000 = 9 x 10⁹ x Q / .5²
Q = 416.67 X 10⁻⁹
Maximum field will be when d = r ( radius )
maximum E = kQ / r²
= 9 x 10⁹ x 416.67 X 10⁻⁹ / .3²
= 41667 N / C
