Explore the electric field of a uniformly charged solid sphere using two distinct methods in this 25-minute video tutorial. Learn how to apply Gauss's law to determine the electric field magnitude both inside and outside the sphere. Then, discover an alternative approach using computational methods, where 10,000 random points are utilized to calculate the electric field. Access the accompanying Python code to visualize and experiment with the concepts presented. Gain valuable insights into electromagnetic theory and computational physics techniques through this hands-on tutorial.
