Consider two neutral, hollow conducting spherical shells. The inner shell will be denoted by S1 and the outer shell will be denoted by S2. The inner radius of S1 is r1. The outer radius of S1 is r2. The inner radius of S2 is r3 and the outer radius of S2 is r4. S1 and S2 are concentric with S1 contained within S2. S1 has a total charge of Q1 and S2 has a total charge of Q2. Find:

a) The electric charge in each different region created by this arrangement.

b) The surface charge density for each of the inner and outer shell surfaces.
