1 PH Physics 1 Exam-3 Solution NAME: Write down your name also on the back of the package of sheets you turn in. SIGNATURE and ID: Return this hard copy exam together with your other answer sheets. There are four questions, which are worth 11 points. 1. The figure shows a solid metal sphere at the center of a hollow metal sphere. 1A (15 points) a) Calculate the charge Q 1 in the inner sphere. Sketch in the figure the distribution of the charge Q 1. b) Calculate the charge Q on the inner surface of the hollow sphere. Calculate the charge Q 3 on the outer surface of the hollow sphere. 1C (15 points) Calculate the electric potential difference V between the spheres.
