Calculate the ratio of the electric potential at the surface

Reference no: EM13106309

Consider two isolated, charged conducting spheres: a large sphere and a second smaller sphere with a radius 8 times smaller than that of the large sphere, but with 4 times as much charge. (a) Calculate the ratio of the electric potential at the surface of the large sphere to that of the small sphere. (b) Calculate the ratio of the magnitudes of the electric fields at the surface of the large sphere to that of the small sphere.
