The figure given below is a section of a conducting rod of radius R1=1.30 mm and length L=11.00 m inside a thin-walled coaxial conducting cylindrical shell of radiusR2=10.0 R1 and the (same) length L. The net charge on the rod is Q1=-5.22×10-13 C; that on the shell is Q2=-2.00 Q1. What are the (a) magnitude E and (b) direction (radially inwards or outwards) of the electric field at radial distance r=2.00 R2? What are (c) E and (d) the direction at r=5.00 R1? What is the charge on the (e) interior and (f) exterior surface of the shell?
