Question

G Search .nl 3:45 PM 12 Figure 23-32 shows two non- conducting spherical shells fixed in place. Shell 1 has uniform surface Shell 1 Shell charge density +6.0 01m2 on its outer surface and radius 3.0 cm; shell 2 has uniform surface charge density +4.0 uC/m2 on its outer surface and radius 2.0 cm; the shell centers are separa In unit-vector notation, what is the net electric field at x 2.0 cm? Fig. 23-32 Problem 12. 12. We note that only the smaller shell contributes a (nonzero) field at the designated point. since the point is inside the radius of the large sphere (and E-0 inside of a spherical charge), and the field points toward the-r direction. Thns with R- 0.020 m (the radius of the smaller shell), L-0.10 m andx- 0.020 m, we obtain (0.020 In)'( 4.0× 10-c u' ) (8.85 × 10-12C" N·m')(010m 00201a), (-28xI0 Nc) I've provided the solution to the problem. Please explain the steps

Explanation / Answer

You are right.

It will be - i.

Because the shell can be assumed as a point charge while studying electric field at an outside point.

And in this case the point charge will be placed at x-axis. So, the field on x-axis will be in x direction or -x direction.

Now the charge is positive, so the field to the left of it will be in -x direction.
