- Calculation of the electric field inside a spherical shell of charge with non-uniform density
A known result is that the average field inside a sphere due to all the charges inside the sphere itself is proportional to the dipole momentum of the charge distribution (see, for example, here).
I wonder whether the same result can be applied in the case of a spherical shell of non-uniform charge density. Is there any result about the average electric field inside the shell?
