Answer:

  E = Q / 4 π ε₀  (r-R_int) / (R_put³ -R_int³)

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Gauss's law

          Ф = ∫ E. dA = [tex]q_{int}[/tex] / ε₀

Where q is the charge inside the surface.

In this case the surface must be a sphere, the electric field lines and the radius of the sphere are parallel, so the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

           ∫ E dA = q_{int}/ ε₀

The area of ​​a sphere is

           A = 4π r²

- The electric field for a distance r < R_int

The charge inside is zero, so the electric field

          E = 0        r <R_in t

- The field for a radio inside the shell

   Let's use the concept of density

         ρ = Q / V

         q = ρ (4/3 π r³)

         dq = ρ 4π r² dr

We substitute in the Gaussian equation

     E ∫ dA = ρ 4π r² dr / ε₀

    E 4π r² = ρ 4π/ε₀   r³ / 3

     E = ρ / 3ε₀ r

We evaluate between the lower limit r = R_int, E = 0 and the upper limit r = r, E = E

      E- 0 = ρ / 3ε₀ (r –R_int)

Density  is

      ρ = q / 4/3 π (R_out³ - R_int³)

Where R <r

     E = Q / 4 π ε₀  (r-R_int) / (R_put³ -R_int³)

To answer that question we need to use the Gauss theorem of the flux of a vectorial field over a closed surface, in fact, this is the first of  Maxwell´s equations for electromagnetism:

∫s) E×dA = dq/ε₀       (1)         E and  dA ( are vectors )

Solution is:

for   Rin< r ≤ Rout      E =  Q×r /4×π×ε₀×(Rout³ - Rin³) 

for r < Rin     E = 0

We know:

  • Every imaginary concentric shell with the spherical charge shell, is a gaussian surface ( that means all of them are equipotential surfaces             E = constant)
  • The charge is uniformly distributed over the volume of the  spherical shell
  • dq is a function of r  (the distance from de center of the sphere )
  • If ρ is the density of charge

dq = ρ×4×π×r²×dr        ⇒   q = ×4×π×r³/3

Q = ρ×4×π×r³/3

By substitution in (1)

E × 4×π×r² = Q/ε₀      ⇒    E × 4×π×r² =    ρ×4×π×r³/3×ε₀

E = ρ×r/3×ε₀        (2)

We need to express E as a function of Rout and Rin and Q

The density of charge

ρ =  Q / Vs                           Vs = (4/3)×π×R³   ⇒ Vs = (4/3)×π×(Rout³ - Rin³)

ρ = Q /(4/3)×π×(Rout³ - Rin³)

And finally plugging the value of ρ in equation (2)  

E = [Q× r/(4/3)×π×(Rout³ - Rin³)] /3×ε₀

E = Q×r /4×π×ε₀×(Rout³ - Rin³)   for   Rin< r ≤ Rout

For r < Rin    the enclosed charge is 0 then E = 0
