Question

Transcribed Image Text:A point charge is located at the center of a thin spherical conducting shell of inner and outer radii ₁ and 2, respectively. A second thin spherical conducting shell of inner and outer radii R₁ and R2, respectively, is concentric with the first shell. The flux is as follows for the different
regions of this arrangement.
= -13.8 x 10³ Nm²/C for r<r₁
= 0 for r₁ <r < r₂
= 34.1 x 10³ N·m²/C for r₂ <r < R₁
= 0 for R₁ <r < R₂
= -34.1 x 103 Nm²/C for r > R₂
Determine the magnitude and sign of the point charge and the charge on the surface of the two shells.
