Question

a,b,c was answered. 

Problem 3. A solid, insulating sphere of radius a has a uniform charge density throughout its volume
and a total charge Q.Concentric with this sphere is an uncharged, conducting, hollow sphere whose
inner and outer radii are b and c as shown in the Figure. We wish to understand completely the
charges and electric fields at all locations. (a) Find the charge contained within a sphere of radius
r<a. (b) From this value, find the magnitude of the electric field for r<a. (c) What charge is
contained within a sphere of radius r when a<r<b? (d) From this value, find the magnitude of the
electric field for r when a<r<b (e) Now consider r when b<r<c.What is the magnitude of the
electric field for this range of values of r? (f) From this value, what must be the charge on the inner
surface of the hollow sphere? (g) From part (f), what must be the charge on the outer surface of the
hollow sphere? (h) Consider the three spherical surfaces of radii a, b, and c. Which of these surfaces
has the largest magnitude of surface charge density?
