Question
Two thin, isolated, concentric conducting spheres of radii 0.80
cm and 5.90cm, have net charges of 34.00
nC and 12.50 nC, respectively. What is the
electric field at 0.400 cm from the center of the spheres?
Use the sign of the field to indicate direction, thus a positive
electric field would point away from the center of the
spheres.
