Question

A small conducting spherical shell with inner radius a and outer radius b is concentric with a larger conducting spherical shell with inner radius cand outer radius d. The inner shell has a total charge of -2q and the outer shell has a total charge of +4q.

Select True or False for the following statements

1:The total charge on the outer surface of the small shell is -6q.

2:The total charge on the inner surface of the large shell is zero

3:The radial component of the electric field in the region r > d is given by +2q/(4??0r2).

4:The total charge on the inner surface of the small shell is zero.

5:The electric field in the region c < r < d is zero.

6:The radial component of the electric field in the region r < a is given by -2q/(4??0r2)

7:The total charge on the outer surface of the large shell is +2q.
