Refer to Concept Simulation 18.3 for a perspective that is useful in solving this problem. Two spherical shells have a common center. A 1.6×106 C charge is spread uniformly over the inner shell, which has a radius of 0.050 m. A +5.1×106 C charge is spread uniformly over the outer shell, which has a radius of 0.15 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field at a distance (measured from the common center) of (a) 0.20 m, (b) 0.10 m, and (c) 0.025 m.
