Electric charge and the distance

The strength of an electric field is: $E = 200\ \mathrm{N/C}$ The potential (of the test charge) is: $V = 600\ \mathrm{V}$ $\epsilon_r=1$ I need to calculate the distance between this point and the ...

About voltage and charge of van de graff generator

I have read that in case of Van de graff generator $V=kQ/r$ where $r$ is radius of the sphere. If that's the case, does the same voltage results in bigger charges in bigger radii?

Find the quantity of charge - given potential function

A potential function is given by $V(r)=\frac{Ae^{-\lambda r}}{r}$ Find charge density and hence charge. I first took the gradient of potential to get $\vec{E}(r)=\frac{Ae^{-\lambda ...
