Does that look correct to you? Sorry about that. I'm looking at that and that totally looks like an S haha

Integrating like that would get us the same thing as if we used two different integrals.

Here is some of work to give you more insight to where were at.

Finding the electric field inside the shell. We think the electric field inside the cavity should be zero and the electric field outside the sphere should be E=Q/(4(π)ε(r^2)) Would that be correct?

we've got the concept down, but the complexity of this problem is what stumps us, and apparently the whole class haha

Homework Statement So, probably a general question for most of all. It states that there is a charged insulating spherical shell with an inner radius of a/4 (a cavity) and an outer radius of a. The outer shell has a non-constant volume charge density of ρ=(-8α(r^2)). I need to find the electric...

Taking university physics 2 this semester and its kicking my butt. I am absolutely lost, so i was really hoping that some of you guys would be able to help me out from time to time, thanks!
