Question

A conducting spherical shell with inner radius aa and outer radius b has a positive point charge Q located at its center. The total charge on the shell is −3Q, and it is insulated from its surroundings.

Derive the expression for the electric field magnitude in terms of the distance r from the center for the region r<a. (Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables Q, a, b, and appropriate constants.)
