Answer:

Electric field will be [tex]394.6857\times 10^{-6}N/C[/tex]                        

Explanation:

We have given that a charge of [tex]-3\mu C=-3\times 10^{-6}C[/tex] is inside the cavity of sphere

Charge density of sphere [tex]\rho =7.35\times 10^{-4}C/m^3[/tex]

Radius of cavity = 6.90 cm = 0.069 m

We have to find the electric field at 9.20 cm = 0.092 m

So effective radius = 0.092 - 0.069 = 0.023 m

So effective volume [tex]V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 0.023^3=0.5093\times 10^{-4}m^3[/tex]

We know that charge = volume × charge density

So charge [tex]Q=0.5093\times 10^{-4}\times 7.35\times 10^{-4}=374.33\times 10^{-6}C[/tex]

So net charge enclosed by sphere [tex]Q_{in}=(374.33-3)\times 10^{-6}=371.33\times 10^{-6}C[/tex]

From Gauss law we know that [tex]EA=\frac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon _0}[/tex]

[tex]E=\frac{Q_{in}}{A\epsilon _0}[/tex]

[tex]E=\frac{371.33\times 10^{-6}}{4\times 3.14\times 0.092^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}=394.6857\times 10^{-6}N/C[/tex]

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.20 cm from the center of the cavity is 394.6857x10⁻⁶ N/C.

Given to us

Charge inside the cavity = -3μC = -3x10⁻⁶ C

Charge density of the sphere, ρ = 7.35x 10⁻⁴ C/m³

Radius of he cavity = 6.90 cm = 0.0690 m

What is the Net charge electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.20 cm from the center of the cavity?

We have to find the electric field at a radius of 9.20 cm, therefore, the effective radius,

Effective radius = 0.092-0.069 = 0.023 m

Effective Volume = [tex]\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex] = 0.5093 x10⁻⁴ m³

The charge, Q = volume x charge density = 374.33 x 10⁻⁶ C

The net charge enclosed,

[tex]Q_{in} = (374.33-3) \times 10^{-6} = 371.33 \times 10^{-6} \rm\ C[/tex]

What is the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.20 cm from the center of the cavity?

We know according to the Gauss law,

[tex]\overrightarrow E = \dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_o}\\\\\overrightarrow E = 394.6857 \times 10^{-6}\rm\ N/C[/tex]

Hence, the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.20 cm from the center of the cavity is 394.6857x10⁻⁶ N/C.
