given
q = 78 uC
R = 6 m
r = 2 cm
two conducting spheres, of the given radii will have same poteneial as they are connected
now
let q1 and q2 be charge on both of them
then
q1 + q2 = q
also
V = q1/4*pi*epsilon*R = q2/4*pi*epsilon*r
hence
q1 = q2(R/r) = 300*q2
301q2 = q
q2 = q/301
q1 = 300q/301
V = 300*(78*10^-6)*8.98*10^9/6*301
a. V = 116352.15946843 V
b. E1 = kq1/R^2 = 8.98*10^9*300*78*10^-6/36*301 = 19392.026578 V/m
E2 = kq2/r^2 = 8.98*10^9*78*10^-6/301*0.02^2 = 5817607.97342 V/m
direction of both electric fields is away from the sphere
