EX: A solid conducting sphere of radius a carries a net
positive charge 2Q. A conducting spherical shell of
inner radius b and outer radius c is concentric with the
solid sphere and carries a net charge –Q. Using
Gauss’s law, find the electric field in the regions labeled
①,②,③, and ④ and the charge distribution on the shell
when the entire system is in electrostatic equilibrium.
