An electricity and magnetism problem by Ashley Shamidha
A solid sphere of radius R has a charge Q distributed in its volume with a charge density
ρ =kr^a, where k and a are constants and r is the distance from its centre. If the electric field at r=R/2 is 1/8 times that at r=R, find the value of a.
The answer is 2.
