An isolated spherical conductor is charged. The conductor has a radius RRR and an electric potential VVV at its surface. The electric field strength at its surface is EEE.

A diagram showing a charged spherical conductor of radius R. A horizontal dashed line starts from the center of the sphere, goes to the right, exits the sphere's surface, and terminates at a point P. The distance from the surface of the sphere to point P is labeled 3R.

Point PPP is at a distance of 3R3R3R from the surface of the conductor.

What are the electric field strength and electric potential at PPP?

Electric field strength: E4\frac{E}{4}4E​, Electric potential: V16\frac{V}{16}16V​

Electric field strength: E16\frac{E}{16}16E​, Electric potential: V4\frac{V}{4}4V​

Electric field strength: E9\frac{E}{9}9E​, Electric potential: V3\frac{V}{3}3V​

Electric field strength: E16\frac{E}{16}16E​, Electric potential: V16\frac{V}{16}16V​
