Question
There are two uncharged concentric conducting spherical shells and a separate point charge. The smaller shell has an
inner radius of 0.100m and an outer radius of 0.200m. The larger shell has an inner radius of 0.300m and and outer
radius of 0.400m. A point charge of +10.0μC is placed between the two shells at a radius of 0.250m from the origin.
Determine the net charge on each of the four surfaces (r = 0.1,0.2, 0.3, 0.4) and make a sketch that indicates BOTH the
electric field lines and the surface charge densities. (this sketch does not have to be exactly mathematically correct, but
use intuition)
