A dielectric sphere of radius a has a ”frozen in” polarization given by P (r) = krrˆ in standard spherical coordinates, with the origin of the coordinate system at the center of the sphere. (A) The sphere is surrounded by a conducting shell of inner radius a and outer radius b > a. The total charge on the conducting shell is zero. Is there an induced charge on the inner and outer surfaces of the conducting shell? If so, what are the corresponding charge densities? (B) Similarly to the point above, the sphere is surrounded by a conducting shell of inner radius a and outer radius b. Now the sphere is grounded (its potential is set to zero). Is there an induced charge on the inner and outer surfaces of the conducting shell? What are the corresponding charge densities?
