A thin spherical shell made of plastic carries a uniformly distributed negative

Question

A thin spherical shell made of plastic carries a uniformly distributed negative charge -7e-10 coulombs (indicated as -Q1 in the diagram). Two large thin disks made of glass carry uniformly distributed positive and negative charges 1.5e-05 coulombs and -1.5e-05 coulombs (indicated as +Q2 and -Q2 in the figure). The radius R1 of the plastic spherical shell is 7 mm, and the radius R2 of the glass disks is 4 meters. The distance d from the center of the spherical shell to the positive disk is 19 mm. Find the potential difference V1 - V2. Point 1 is at the center of the plastic sphere, and point 2 is just outside the sphere. Find the potential difference V2 - V3. Point 2 is just below the sphere, and point 3 is right beside the positive glass disk.
