Question:

Figure a, shows a narrow charged solid cylinder that is coaxial with a larger charged cylindrical shell. Both are non-conducting and thin and have uniform surface charge densities on their outer surfaces. Figure b, gives the radial component E of the electric field versus radial distance r from the common axis. The vertical axis scale is set by Es = 3.0 x 103 N/C. What is the linear charge density of the shell?
