Problem

At distances of 5 cm5\ \text{cm} and 10 cm10\ \text{cm} from the surface of a uniformly charged solid sphere, the potentials are 100 V100\ \text{V} and 75 V75\ \text{V}, respectively. Then, (a) potential at its surface is 150 V150\ \text{V} (b) the charge on the sphere is 503×10−10 C\frac{50}{3}\times10^{-10}\ \text{C} (c) the electric field on the surface is 1500 V/m1500\ \text{V/m} (d) the electric potential at its centre is 25 V25\ \text{V}
