Hi! I've been trying to attempt this problem over here but the solutions state that the solution is this below?
However, from integrating the density and then plugging it into Gauss's law, I get the exact same thing, except a 15 instead of a 5. Could any please help point out if there is an...
a) Just using the equations gives us:
surface charge density = ## \rho_{\rho s} = kR^2 ##
volume charge density = ## \rho_\rho = -4kR ##
b) I am not sure here but the Q on the shell is the same as within. If that's the case we can use gauss law to find Q which I guess is the total charge.

Well, in this problem, I try to use
$$d \tau '= \mu ^2 \sin {\theta} {d\mu} {d\theta} {d\phi}$$
With these domain integration:
$$0<\mu<r$$
$$0<\theta<\pi$$
$$0<\phi<2\pi$$
, I get $$V=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{3Qr^2}{2R^3}$$
This result is wrong because doesn't match with Prob 2.21, which...

I found out the time when rotation ceases to be 4 ##v_0## /5*mew*g, where mew=coefficent of friction of surface but I am unable to plot the graph post that time
I tried to use ##W = ε_0/2 \int E^2d\tau## for all space. So I find that ##E = \frac{(R^3 - b^3)\rho}{3ε_0r^2}## where ##\rho## is the charge denisty. So from here when I plug the equation I get something like
$$W = \frac{(R^3 - b^3)^2\rho^2 4 \ pi}{18ε_0} \int_{?}^{\inf}1/r^2dr$$
Is this...
