To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to load balancing. We will begin by defining what charges are acting inside and which charges are placed outside.
PART A)
The charge of the conducting shell is distributed only on its external surface. The point charge induces a negative charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell:
. This is the total charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell.
PART B)
The positive charge (of the same value) on the external surface of the conducting shell is:

The driver's net load is distributed through its outer surface. When inducing the new load, the total external load will be given by,



Here's the equation you use: Density = mass/volume
1) 5.2g/cm^3 = m/3.7cm^3
2) m = 5.2g/cm^3 x 3.7cm^3
3) m = 19.24g
You can check the answer by plugging it in
19.24g/3.7cm^3
= 5.2g/cm^3
Thomas Edison is the answer im 100% sure of it.
