Consider an initially neutral hollow conducting spherical shell with inner radius r and outer radius 2r. A point charge +Q is now placed inside the shell at a distance r2 from the center. The shell is then grounded by connecting the outer surface to the earth. P is an external point at a distance 2r from the point charge +Q on the line passing through the center and the point charge +Q as shown in the figure.
