Homework Statement
If you have a conducting shell with charge Q surrounding a conducting sphere of charge negative - Q, what is the potential at the outside of the conducting shell? What about the inside?
Homework Equations
V=(kQenclosed)/r
The Attempt at a Solution
I don't know if the above equation holds true in this case. Are these assumptions correct:
1. On the outside of the conducting shell, potential is 0?
2. On the inside, the potential is kQ/R where R is the radius of the conducting shell?
