I'm a math & physics major so I'll use that notation from now on :)

Wait, how do I put Latex code into my post? I click on the "Latex" button in the bottom left corner of the text box and paste my code but it doesn't appear in the post when I post it. I'm confused.

Nope, it's not working. It doesn't like the </> signs in my code. I'll just type it out.V(0<r<A) - V(0) = - ∫0rE(0<r<A)dr , V(0)≡0 V(0<r<A) = - ∫0rE(0<r<A)dr V(A<r<B) - V(0) = - ∫0rE(A<r<B)dr = - ∫0AE(0<r<A)dr - ∫ArE(A<r<B)dr V(A<r<B) = V(0<r<A)|r=A - ∫ArE(A<r<B)dr V(r>B) - V(0) = -...

I'll try again. This is what I've got for the voltages of each section.

Also, I tried copy and pasting a latex written version of what I was trying to say and it was blank...

E(0<r<A)=ρ/(2ε0)r E(A<r<B)=ρ/(2ε0)A2r-1 E(r>B)=(λ+πρA2)/(2πε0)r-1

Ok, but if my reference point is zero in every one of the cases, how do I keep the potential from going to infinity as r goes to infinity?
