Question
  1. Derive expressions for the electric field magnitude in terms from the distance r from the center for the regions
    r<a (towards the center or away from the center?)
    a<r<b  (towards the center or away from the center?)
  2. r>b (towards the center or away from the center?)
  3. What is the charge accumulated on the inner surface of the conducting shell? 
  4. What is the charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell? 
  5. inner surface (r=a) charge? (towards the center or away from the center?)
  6. outer surface (r=b) charge? (towards the center or away from the center?)
A conducting spherical shell with inner radius a 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 (Figure 1).
