A solid conducting sphere with radius R that carries positive charge Q is concentric with a very thin insulating shell of radius 2R that also carries charge Q. The charge Q is distributed uniformly over the insulating shell. Use the expression for electric field E=kQ/r^2 for R ≤ r ≤ 2R in this system to calculate the potential difference between the solid conducting sphere and the thin insulating shell.
