Hello. This was incorrect

(c25p59_6e) Suppose that the negative charge in a copper one-cent coin were removed to a very large distance from Earth-perhaps to a
distant galaxy-and that the positive charge were distributed uniformly over Earth's surface. By how much would the electric potential at
the surface change? (See Sample Problem 22-7 in the problem supplement. By taking the mass of a penny to be 3.11 g, the positive or
negative charge is found to be 1.37×105 C)
