A charge Q is distributed over three concentric spherical shells of radii $\displaystyle \mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}, \mathrm{c}$ $\displaystyle (\mathrm{a}<\mathrm{b}<\mathrm{c})$ such that their surface charge densities are equal to one another.
The total potential at a point at distance r from their common centre, where $\displaystyle \mathrm{r}<\mathrm{a}$, would be :
Official answer
(2)
$\displaystyle \frac{\mathrm{Q}(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c})}{4 \pi \epsilon_0\left(\mathrm{a}^2+\mathrm{b}^2+\mathrm{c}^2\right)}$
