Problems:
3.1 An empty metal paint can is placed on a marble table, the lid is
removed, and both parts are discharged (honorably) by touching them to
ground. An insulating nylon thread is glued to the center of the lid, and a
penny, a nickel, and a dime are glued to the thread so that they are not
touching each other. The penny is given a charge of +5 nC, and the nickel
and dime are discharged. The assembly is lowered into the can so that the
coins hang clear of all walls, and the lid is secured. The outside of the can
is again touched momentarily to ground. The device is carefully
disassembled with insulating gloves and tools. (a) What charges are found
in each of the five metallic pieces? (b) If the penny had been given a charge
of +5nC, the dime a charge of -2nC, and the nickel a charge of -1nC, what
would the final charge arrangement have been?

3.3 The cylindrical surface = 8cm contains the surface charge density, s
= 5e20|z| nC/m2. a) What is the total amount of charge present? b) How
much ux leaves the surface = 8cm, 1cm<z<5cm, 30 <<90?

3.15 Volume charge density is located as follows: v = 0 for <1 mm and

for >2 mm, v = 4C/m3 for 1 <<2 mm. a) Calculate the total charge in
