The electric field inside a uniformly charged sphere with positive charge Q and radius R points radially outward from the center of the sphere and has magnitude E=Qr/4πϵ0R3 at a distance r from the center. By integrating the electric field, find the potential difference between the center of the sphere and its surface. Which is at higher potential: the center or the surface?

Answer:

Given that

E = Qr/(4EoR3)

Then

E = - dV/dr

So , dV = - E dr

V=integral ( from R to 0)- E Dr

V=

- integral ( from R to 0) Qr/(4πEoR3) dr

V =

- (Q/(4πEoR3)) integral ( from R to 0) r dr

Then

V = - (Q/(4πEoR3)) (R2/2)

V = - (Q/(4πEoR3)) (R2/2)

V = - Q/(4πEo(2R))
