The force between $q$ and the wire is . . . . . . $N$. (Use $\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \text{ N} \cdot \text{m}^2 / \text{C}^2$)

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R_1$ and volume charge density $\rho = \frac{\rho_0}{r}$ is enclosed by a hollow sphere of radius $R_2$ with negative surface charge density $\sigma$, such that the total charge in the system is zero. $\rho_0$ is a positive constant and $r$ is the distance from the centre of the sphere. The ratio $R_2/R_1$ is
