$A$ small sphere of radius $r_{1}$ and charge $q_{1}$ is enclosed by a spherical shell of radius $r_{2}$ and charge $q_{2}$. Show that if $q_{1}$ is positive,charge will necessarily flow from the sphere to the shell (when the two are connected by a wire) no matter what the charge $q_{2}$ on the shell is.
