sphere of radius R has total charge Q. The volume charge density (C/m³) within the sphere is

This charge density decreases linearly from ρ₀ at the center to zero at the edge of the sphere.
a. Show that ρ₀ = 3Q/Ï€R³.
b. Show that the electric field inside the sphere points radially outward with magnitude

c. Show that your result of part b has the expected value at r = R.
