Answer:

Part 1: The value of x component of electric field  at point P is [tex]-1.03 \times 10^7 \frac{ N}{ C}[/tex]

Part 2: The value of y component of electric field  at point P is 0.

Part 3: The value of x component of electric field  at point R is 0.

Part 4: The value of y component of electric field  at point R is [tex]-5.06 \times 10^8 \frac{ N}{ C}[/tex].

Part 5: The value of surface density at the outer edge of the shell  is [tex]-3.83 \times 10^{-4} C/m^2[/tex].

Part 6: None ,The field is treated as if it is a single point charge outside the conducting wall and there after extends to infinity diminishing by a rate of [tex]r^2[/tex].

Part 7:The fields are equal as the charge on the outer shell does not affect the field on within the shell. ([tex]E_2=E_o[/tex])

Explanation:

Part 1

As

[tex]E = k \frac{ Q}{ r^2}[/tex] is the Electric field of a point charge

From given data

[tex]q_1 = -9.6 \mu C[/tex] is point charge at the center

[tex]q_2 = 1.5\mu C[/tex] is net charge of the conducting shell

[tex]a = 2.4 cm = 0.024[/tex] m is inner radius of the conducting shell

[tex]b = 4.1 cm = 0.041[/tex] m is outer radius of the conducting shell

[tex]x= 8.4 cm = 0.084[/tex] m is the location of P on x

So the value is given as

[tex]E_x( P) = k \left(\frac{ q_1 + q_2}{ x^2}\right) \\E_x( P) = 9 \times 10^9 \left(\frac{ -9.6 \times 10^{-6}+ 1.5 \times 10^{-6}}{0.084^2}\right) \\= -1.03 \times 10^7 \frac{ N}{ C}[/tex]

The value of x component of electric field  at point P is [tex]-1.03 \times 10^7 \frac{ N}{ C}[/tex]

Part 2

As

[tex]E = k \frac{ Q}{ r^2}[/tex] is the Electric field of a point charge

From given data

[tex]q_1 = -9.6 \mu C[/tex] is point charge at the center

[tex]q_2 = 1.5\mu C[/tex] is net charge of the conducting shell

[tex]a = 2.4 cm = 0.024[/tex] m is inner radius of the conducting shell

[tex]b = 4.1 cm = 0.041[/tex] m is outer radius of the conducting shell

[tex]y = 0 cm = 0.0[/tex] m is the location of P on y

So the value is given as

[tex]E_y( P) = k \left(\frac{ q_1 + q_2}{ y^2}\right) \\E_y( P) = 9 \times 10^9 \left(\frac{ -9.6 \times 10^{-6}+ 1.5 \times 10^{-6}}{0}\right) \\= 0[/tex]

The value of y component of electric field  at point P is 0.

Part 3

As

[tex]E = k \frac{ Q}{ r^2}[/tex] is the Electric field of a point charge

From given data

[tex]q_1 = -9.6 \mu C[/tex] is point charge at the center

[tex]q_2 = 1.5\mu C[/tex] is net charge of the conducting shell

[tex]a = 2.4 cm = 0.024[/tex] m is inner radius of the conducting shell

[tex]b = 4.1 cm = 0.041[/tex] m is outer radius of the conducting shell

[tex]x = 0 cm = 0.0[/tex] m is the location of R on x

So the value is given as

[tex]E_x( R) = k \left(\frac{ q_1 + q_2}{ x^2}\right) \\E_x( R) = 9 \times 10^9 \left(\frac{ -9.6 \times 10^{-6}+ 1.5 \times 10^{-6}}{0}\right) \\= 0[/tex]

The value of x component of electric field  at point R is 0.

Part 4

As

[tex]E = k \frac{ Q}{ r^2}[/tex] is the Electric field of a point charge

From given data

[tex]q_1 = -9.6 \mu C[/tex] is point charge at the center

[tex]q_2 = 1.5\mu C[/tex] is net charge of the conducting shell

[tex]a = 2.4 cm = 0.024[/tex] m is inner radius of the conducting shell

[tex]b = 4.1 cm = 0.041[/tex] m is outer radius of the conducting shell

[tex]y =1.2 cm = 0.012[/tex]  m is the location of R on y

So the value is given as

[tex]E_y( R) = k \left(\frac{ q_1 + q_2}{ y^2}\right) \\E_y( R) = 9 \times 10^9 \left(\frac{ -9.6 \times 10^{-6}+ 1.5 \times 10^{-6}}{0.012}\right) \\=-5.06 \times 10^{8} N/C[/tex]

The value of y component of electric field  at point R is [tex]-5.06 \times 10^8 \frac{ N}{ C}[/tex].

Part 5

As

[tex]\sigma = \frac{ q_{enclosed}}{ 4 \pi r^2}[/tex] is the Surface charge density

From given data

[tex]q_1 = -9.6 \mu C[/tex] is point charge at the center

[tex]q_2 = 1.5\mu C[/tex] is net charge of the conducting shell

[tex]a = 2.4 cm = 0.024[/tex] m is inner radius of the conducting shell

[tex]b = 4.1 cm = 0.041[/tex] m is outer radius of the conducting shell

So the value is given as

[tex]\sigma_b = \frac{ q_{enclosed}}{ 4 \pi b^2}\\\sigma_b = \frac{ -9.6 \times 10^{-6}+ 1.5 \times 10^{-6}}{ 4 \pi 0.041^2}\\\sigma_b = -3.83 \times 10^{-4} C/m^2[/tex]

The value of surface density at the outer edge of the shell  is [tex]-3.83 \times 10^{-4} C/m^2[/tex].

Part 6

None because the field is treated as if it is a single point charge outside the conducting wall and there after extends to infinity diminishing by a rate of [tex]r^2[/tex].

Part 7

The fields are equal as the charge on the outer shell does not affect the field on within the shell. ([tex]E_2=E_o[/tex])
