PHYS 221 Midterm Practice Summer 2012 1 3 A charged, metal object has a cavity inside it into which is placed two charges, one of Q and the other of −3Q. There is a net charge of −Q on the object itself. What is the net charge on the outside surface of the metal object? Consider a insulating sphere of radius R centered on the origin with total charge Q uniformly distributed throughout the volume of the sphere.
