Question The figure shows a spherical nonconducting shell carrying a net positive charge \( 20 \mu \mathrm{C} \) uniformly distributed through its volume. It has an inner radius \( a=2.5 \mathrm{~cm} \) and outher radius \( b=8 \mathrm{~cm} \). Using Gauss' law, Part B - Find the magnitude of the electric field at radial distance \( r=5 \mathrm{~cm} \) Express your answer numerically, to two significant figures, using \( \epsilon_{0}=8.85 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{C}^{2} /\left(\mathrm{N} \cdot \mathrm{m}^{2}\right) \). \[ E(r=5 \mathrm{~cm}) \] Part C - Find the magnitude of the electric field at radial distance \( r=12 \mathrm{~cm} \) Express your answer numerically, to two significant figures, using \( \epsilon_{0}=8.85 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{C}^{2} /\left(\mathrm{N} \cdot \mathrm{m}^{2}\right) \). \[ E(r=12 \mathrm{~cm}) \]
