1. An electric field is given by Ex = 3.5 x3 kN/C.

The potential difference between the points on the x axis at, x = 1 m and x = 3 m which will be given as :

We know that,    Ex = - dV / dx

using an equation, dV = - Ex dx                                                      { eq.1 }

inserting the value of Ex in above eq.

dV = - (3.5 x3 kN/C) dx

integrating an above eq.

V2 - V1 = - (3.5 kN/C) x3 dx

V2 - V1 = - (3.5 kN/C) [x4 / 4]31

V2 - V1 = - [(3.5 kN/C) / 4] [(3 m)4 - (1)4]

V2 - V1 = - [(3.5 kN/C) / 4] (80 m4)

V2 - V1 = - 70 kV

2. (a) The maximum net charge which is given as :

using an equation, Ebreakdown = k Qmax / R2

Or    Qmax = Ebreakdown R2 / k { eq.2 }

where, Ebreakdown = dielectric strength of a spherical conductor = 3 x 106 V/m

k = constant = 9 x 109 Nm2/C2

R = radius of spherical conductor = 12 cm = 0.12 m

inserting these values in eq.2,

Qmax = (3 x 106 V/m) (0.12 m)2 / (9 x 109 Nm2/C2)

Qmax = 0.0048 x 10-3 C

Qmax = 4.8 x 10-6 C

Qmax = 4.8 C

(b) The potential of the sphere when it carries this maximum charge which is given as :

Vmax = k Qmax / R                                                                 { eq.3 }

inserting the values in eq.3,

Vmax = (9 x 109 Nm2/C2) (4.8 x 10-6 C) / (0.12 m)

Vmax = 360 x 103 V

Vmax = 360 kV
