MIT 8.02 Electricity and Magnetism, Spring 2002 7 Online
OpenStudy (anonymous):

Suppose some amount of charge is given on the surface of a solid sphere uniformly. Then what will be the electric field outside the sphere?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have to apply gauss' law, and what comes out is that you've to consider the entire sphere as a unique point charge, so if the charge on the sphere is Q, you'll have:\[E=\frac{ Q }{ 4\pi \epsilon _{o}d^2 }\] ;)
