Answer:
The electric field is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The linear charge density on the inner conductor is 
The linear charge density on the outer conductor is

The position of interest is r = 37.3 mm =0.0373 m
Now this position we are considering is within the outer conductor so the electric field at this point is due to the inner conductor (This is because the charges on the conductor a taken to be on the surface of the conductor according to Gauss Law )
Generally according to Gauss Law

=> 
substituting values


The negative sign tell us that the direction of the electric field is radially inwards
=> 
Answer:

Explanation:
In this process energy must be conserved. On the initial stage, there will be only gravitational potential energy, while on the final stage there will be only elastic potential energy, so they will be equal. We write this as:

Which is the same as:

So we can obtain our mass from there, and for our values:
