A solid nonconducting sphere (radius = 12 cm) has a charge of uniform density (30 nC/m3) distributed throughout its volume. Determine the magnitude of the electric field 15 cm from the center of the sphere.
 a. 22 N/C
  b. 49 N/C
  c. 31 N/C
  d. 87 N/C
  e. 26 N/C

Question 2

Charge of uniform density (40 pC/m2) is distributed on a spherical surface (radius = 1.0 cm), and a second concentric spherical surface (radius = 3.0 cm) carries a uniform charge density of 60 pC/m2 . What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point 4.0 cm from the center of the two surfaces?
 a. 3.8 N/C
  b. 4.1 N/C
  c. 3.5 N/C
  d. 3.2 N/C
  e. 0.28 N/C

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates’s recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.
