This is only true if the sphere is isolated from everything else
When the charge distribution is spherically symmetric, the field outside the charged object is exactly that of a point charge at the center of that object. (Where the charge of the point charge equals the total charge of the object.)

An electric field can be created by a single charge or a distribution of charges. The electric field a distance r from a point charge q' has magnitude {E}=k\frac{|q'|}{r^2}. The electric field points away from positive charges and toward negative charges. A distribution of charges creates an electric field that can be found by taking the vector sum of the fields created by individual point charges. Note that if a charge q is placed in an electric field created by...

1. Problem: Electric Potential due to Point Charges Consider four point charges placed at the corners of a square of side s = 0.5 μm. Two charges, diagonally opposite each other, are +0.7 nC. Another of the charges is -12 nC. a) What will be the electric potential at the center of the square if the fourth charge is -6 nC (assume the conventional zero point definition for each individual charge throughout this problem)? b) What should the fourth charge...

5. We have drawn several analogies between gravitational and electric fields. An example is their shared 1/(distance)2 dependence on field strength for, respectively, point masses and charges. In Physics 160 you saw that the gravitational field strength is zero everywhere inside a spherical shell of matter. We have now learned that the electrical field strength is also zero inside an isolated charged spherical conductor. However, we have also leaned that the electrical field strength, again by Gauss's Law, is zero...

Electric Field around a Point Charged Object 01 Due in 12 hours, 18 minutes In describing the electric force we use the concept of the electric field. Every object that has a non-zero charge creates an electric field around it everywhere in space. The field is a vector quantity, so it has a magnitude and a direction at every point in space Refer to your book for a discussion of the electric field created by point-charged object. Take note of...
