A very long conducting tube (hollow cylinder) has inner radius $A$ and outer radius $b$. It carries charge per unit length $+α$, where $\alpha$ is a positive constant with units of C/m. A line of charge lies along the axis of the tube. The line of charge has charge per unit length. Calculate the electric field in terms of $\alpha$ and the distance $r$ from the axis of the tube for (i) ; (ii) ; (iii) $r>b$. Show your results in a graph of $E$ as a function of $R$.

A very large, horizontal, nonconducting sheet of charge has uniform charge per unit area $\sigma=5.00\times10^{-6}$ C/m². A small sphere of mass $m=8.00\times10^{-6}$ kg and charge $q$ is placed $3.00$ cm above the sheet of charge and then released from rest. What is $q$ if the sphere is released $1.50$ cm above the sheet?

A very large, horizontal, nonconducting sheet of charge has uniform charge per unit area $\sigma =5.00\times {10}^{-6}$ C/m². A small sphere of mass $m=8.00\times {10}^{-6}$ kg and charge $q$ is placed $3.00$ cm above the sheet of charge and then released from rest. If the sphere is to remain motionless when it is released, what must be the value of $q$?

An infinitely long cylindrical conductor has radius $r$ and uniform surface charge density $\sigma$. In terms of $\sigma$, what is the magnitude of the electric field produced by the charged cylinder at a distance $r>R$ from its axis? Then, express the result in terms of $\lambda$ and show that the electric field outside the cylinder is the same as if all the charge were on the axis.

An infinite cylinder of radius R has a linear charge density λ . The volume charge density (C/m³) within the cylinder (r ≤ R ) is p (r) = rp₀ / R, where p₀ is a constant to be determined. The charge within a small volume dV is dq = pdV. The integral of pdV over a cylinder of length L is the total charge Q = λL within the cylinder. Use this fact to show that p₀ = 3λ / 2πR² Hint: Let dV be a cylindrical shell of length L, radius r, and thickness dr. What is the volume of such a shell?
