A spherical capacitor consists of two concentric spheres with the inner sphere of radius aand the outer sphere of radius b. The total charge on the inner sphere is Q C whereasthe outer sphere similarly supports a charge of −Q C. For both spheres, the charge isuniformly distributed. If the permittivity in all regions is the same as that of free space,use Gauss’s law to determine the electric field intensity everywhere. Provide a plot ofthe magnitude of the electric field intensity versus radial distance as measured from thespherical centre.
