Step 1
We have a point charge \( q = 5.0 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C} \) placed at the center of a spherical conducting shell. The inner radius of the shell is \( 6.0 \, \text{cm} \) and the outer radius is \( 9.0 \, \text{cm} \). Show more…

A conducting spherical shell has an inner radius a, an outer radius b, and a net charge of +2Q. A point charge with a charge of -3Q is placed at the center of the conducting shell. If a = 5.0 cm, b = 11 cm, and Q = 6.0 Ă— 10-8 C, find the electric potential V at r = 9.0 cm.
