Explanation:

Given that,

Radius R= 2.00

Charge = 6.88 μC

Inner radius = 4.00 cm

Outer radius  = 5.00 cm

Charge = -2.96 μC

We need to calculate the electric field

Using formula of electric field

(a). For, r = 1.00 cm

Here, r<R

So, E = 0

The electric field does not exist inside the sphere.

(b). For, r = 3.00 cm

Here, r >R

The electric field is

Put the value into the formula

The electric field outside the solid conducting sphere and the direction is towards sphere.

(c). For, r = 4.50 cm

Here, r lies between R₁ and R₂.

So, E = 0

The electric field does not exist inside the conducting material

(d).  For, r = 7.00 cm

The electric field is

Put the value into the formula

The electric field outside the solid conducting sphere and direction is away of solid sphere.

Hence, This is the required solution.
