Suppose the conducting spherical shell in the figure below carries a charge of 2.80 nC and that a charge of −2.40 nC is at the center of the sphere. If a = 1.80 m and b = 2.40 m, find the electric field at the following.

(a)    r = 1.50 m

magnitude     N/C
direction      radially inward /radially outward /The magnitude is zero.


(b)    r = 2.20 m

magnitude     N/C
direction      ---Select--- radially inward /radially outward /The magnitude is zero.


(c)    r = 2.50 m

magnitude     N/C
direction      ---Select--- radially inward /radially outward /The magnitude is zero.


(d) What is the charge distribution on the sphere?
