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

Coca-Cola originally used coca leaves and caffeine from the African kola nut. It was advertised as a therapeutic agent and "pickerupper." Eventually, its formulation was changed, and the coca leaves were removed because of the effects of regulation on cocaine-related products.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
