Answer 2

Answer:

The final answer is ZERO

Explanation:

Given: Two concentric metallic shells of radii R and 2R if the outer shell is given a charge of q1.

To Find: The charge on the surface of the inner shell.

Explanation :

Two metallic shells of radii R and 2R and the given charge is q1. So, the surface charge densities on the outer surfaces are equal.

We charged outer q1 and don't charge the inner shell. For the metallic shell, q1 will be on the outer surface. So the charge of the inner surface is zero and the inner shell surface will be zero also.

So, due to induction the charge on the surface of the inner shell will be ZERO.
