Suppose we have a negatively charged balloon with total charge Q=−5.0⋅10−9 C. What is the electric potential (also called voltage) at a point P, which is a distance R=20 m from the center of the balloon? | Suppose we have a negatively charged balloon with total charge Q=−5.0⋅10−9 C.

We assume P lies outside of the balloon. This is obvious, as P is a distance R=20 m away from the center of the balloon. | We assume P lies outside of the balloon. This is obvious, as P is a distance R=20 m away from the center of the balloon. | ||
