A spherical shell insulator is shown in cross-section in the figure. It has inner radius a, outer radius b,
and the point P is located a distance r from the origin. The shell has a total charge Q uniformly
distributed throughout its volume. Which is a correct use of Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the
electric field E at point P?
O E 4
r² = Qr³ /(so( b³ - a³ ))
OE 4 π b² = Q(b³-a³) / (solr³-a³ ))
OE 4 π b² = Q(r³-a³) / (so(b³-a3³ ))
OE 4T r² = Q(b³-a³) / (so(r³-a³))
OE4 r² = Q(r³-a³) / (so (b³-a³))
