Figure 1.52 shows a spherical shell of charge, of radius a and surface density σ, from which a small circular piece of radius b << a has been removed. What is the direction and magnitude of the field at the midpoint of the aperture? Solve this exercise in three ways: a) direct integration, b) by superposition, and c) using the relationship for a force on a small patch.
