The electrostatic potential in a charged spherical region of radius \(r\) varies as \(V=a r^3+b\), where \(a\) and b are constants. The total charge in the sphere of unit radius is \(\alpha \times \pi a \in_0\). The value of \(\alpha\) is _________ .
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(-12\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( v=ar^{3}+b \)
\( E=-\frac{dv}{dr}=-3ar^{2} \)
\( \phi_{closed}=\frac{q_{cnc}}{\epsilon_{0}} \)
\( q_{cnc}=\epsilon_{0}.E.A \)
\( =\epsilon_{0}(-3a.(1)^{2})4\pi(1)^{2} \)
\( =-12\pi a\epsilon_{0} \)
\(\therefore x =-12\)
\( E=-\frac{dv}{dr}=-3ar^{2} \)
\( \phi_{closed}=\frac{q_{cnc}}{\epsilon_{0}} \)
\( q_{cnc}=\epsilon_{0}.E.A \)
\( =\epsilon_{0}(-3a.(1)^{2})4\pi(1)^{2} \)
\( =-12\pi a\epsilon_{0} \)
\(\therefore x =-12\)
