Hi I'm given the diameter of the sphere is 25cm. An electric pen brought near this sphere causes a voltage of 5000 V. The distance between the sphere and the pen is 14cm. The pen itself is measured at 25cm. they want to know what is the charge on the sphere? Please break it down so I can understand. The last answer had the wrong diameter calculated into the problem and was missing what formulas they used for each problem and how they solved it in steps.

In 2014 the Netherlands installed the world’s first solar bike path. Let’s compute the cost of mitigation relative to electricity from coal. Of course, the sidewalk probably wasn’t intended to be a cost-effective electricity option. It's designed for qualitative rather than quantitative value, to raise awareness. However, there are real proposals to scale up this kind of technology to large numbers of sidewalks and roadways, so cost analysis is relevant. The project cost $3.75 million for ~30kW of installed capacity (based on typical 150W/m2 solar panels). Assume a CCF of 9%, and a utilization of 11% (probably generous for solar panels flat on the ground in the Netherlands). You may ignore all other costs. Part 1. What is the levelized cost of electricity from the solar sidewalk? $/kWh Part 2. What is the cost of mitigation (in $/tCO2) relative to coal electricity at $0.09/kWh and 0.9 kg CO2/kWh. You may assume the solar sidewalk causes 0 kg CO2 emissions/kWh
