A hallow metal sphere of radius R is uniformly charged. The electric field due to the sphere at a distance r from the centre:

A positive charge Q is uniformly distributed throughout the volume of a dielectric sphere of radius R. A point mass having charge +q and mass m is fired toward the center of the sphere with velocity v from a point at distance r (r gt R) from the center of the sphere. Find the minimum velocity v so that it can penetrate (R//2) distance of the sphere. Neglect any resistance other than electric interaction. Charge on the small mass remains constant throughout the motion.

Let P(r)=(Q)/(piR^4)r be the charge density distribution for a solid sphere of radius R and total charge Q. For a point 'p' inside the sphere at distance r_1 from the centre of the sphere, the magnitude of electric field is:
