ahh, then never mind.PeroK said:I'm sorry to say I can't make any sense of that you are asking.
An electric field in a spherical shell refers to the distribution of electric charge on the surface of a spherical shell. It is a measure of the force per unit charge that a test charge would experience at any point on the surface of the shell.
The electric field in a spherical shell can be calculated using the formula E = Q/4πε0r2, where Q is the total charge on the shell, ε0 is the permittivity of free space, and r is the distance from the center of the shell to the point where the electric field is being measured.
No, the electric field on the surface of a spherical shell is not the same at all points. It is dependent on the distance from the center of the shell and the distribution of charge on the surface.
The location of the charge on the surface of a spherical shell affects the electric field by changing the distribution of charge and the distance from the center of the shell. This, in turn, affects the strength and direction of the electric field at different points on the surface.
The electric field inside a spherical shell is zero, as there is no charge inside the shell to create an electric field. Outside the shell, the electric field is non-zero and is dependent on the distance from the center of the shell and the total charge on the surface.
