Question: As shown in the figure below, a solid insulating sphere of radius a = 5 . 0 0 cm carries a net positive charge Q

As shown in the figure below, a solid insulating sphere of radius
a =5.00 cm
carries a net positive charge
Q =3.00C
that is uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Concentric with this sphere is a conducting spherical shell with inner radius
b =10.0 cm,
outer radius
c =15.0 cm,
and having net charge
q =1.00C.
Determine the magnitude of the electric field (in N/C) at each of the following distances from the center of the spheres.
An insulating sphere with radius a is concentric with a larger conducting spherical shell of inner radius b and outer radius c. a < b < c.
(a)
r =3.00 cm
N/C
(b)
r =8.00 cm
N/C
(c)
r =12.0 cm
N/C
(d)
r =17.5 cm
N/C
