Inside the sphere, I believe it should since it's symmetrical. It's charge would be distributed equally around.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I named the solid sphere I
the second spherical shell as II
and the outer spherical shell as III
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Oh wait a photo included. Lol.
no. Because each charge experiences the field of the inner sphere.

Is this referring to an electric field?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep

Well the question is:
"What will be the charge inside of II?

that should have a positive charge
OpenStudy (abb0t):
If it's far away, shouldn't it be negative?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well the distance between them is R_2, so ..no
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Well seems like you answered your own question. Nicely done.

Why is the outer surface of the outermost shell zero?
