Answer :
Answer:
the new surface charge density = Q/4πr²( initial surface charge density divided by 4)
Explanation:
charge density(surface) = Q/A = charge/area
let r be the initial radius of the disk
therefore, area A = πr²
charge density = Q/πr²
Now that the radius is doubled, let it be represented as R
∴ R = 2r
Recall, charge density = Q/A
A = πR = π(2r)² = 4πr²
the new surface charge density = Q/4πr²
the initial surface charge density divided by 4
