2short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What is q1?
Show answer
State the electric field deep inside a charged solid conductor in equilibrium. [1 point]
What is q2?
Show answer
A conductor's surface has local charge density σ=2.0×106\sigma = 2.0\times10^{-6} C per m squared. Find the field just outside (ε0=8.85×1012\varepsilon_0 = 8.85\times10^{-12}). [2 points]
