# An isolated conducting sphere of radius \(0.18\text{ m}\) is located in a vacuum. The sphere is charged until its electric potential is \(3.0 \times 10^3\text{ V}\) relative to zero potential at infinity. What is the net electric charge on the sphere?

An isolated conducting sphere of radius \(0.18\text{ m}\) is located in a vacuum. The sphere is charged until its electric potential is \(3.0 \times 10^3\text{ V}\) relative to zero potential at infinity. What is the net electric charge on the sphere?

- **A.** \(1.5 \times 10^{-8}\text{ C}\)
- **B.** \(2.0 \times 10^{-8}\text{ C}\)
- **C.** \(3.0 \times 10^{-8}\text{ C}\)
- **D.** \(6.0 \times 10^{-8}\text{ C}\)
