Explain the difference between force and torque.

Question 2

A solid insulating sphere of radius 5 cm carries electric charge uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Concentric with the sphere is a conducting spherical shell with no net charge as shown in Figure OQ24.9. The inner radius of the shell is 10 cm, and the outer radius is 15 cm. No other charges are nearby. Rank the magnitude of the electric field at points A (at radius 4 cm), B (radius 8 cm), C (radius 12 cm), and D (radius 16 cm) from largest to smallest. Display any cases of equality in your ranking.

perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the axis of rotation that
is capable of producing angular motion.
