I never understood this problem...
Okay you have a point charge Q at the center in a spherical conducting shell. There is a point charge q outside the shell.
Does q experience a force? Does Q experience a force?
I want to say yes they experience the same force but then there is that shell. I don't know what to do with it...
Would the shell pickup the charge Q and then the force would between the shell and q? that doesn't make sense though.
Maybe they don't experience a force? But why wouldnt they?
COnfused
