A charge QQ is placed at the centre of an uncharged, hollow metallic sphere of radius aa, (a) Find the surface charge density on the inner surface and on the outer surface. (b) If a charge qq is put on the sphere, what would be the surface charge densities on the inner and the outer surfaces? (c) Find the electric field inside the sphere at a distance xx from the centre in the situations (a) and (b).
