Two spherical,nonconducting,and very thin shells of uniformly distributed positive charge $Q$ and radius $d$ are located a distance $10d$ from each other. $A$ positive point charge $q$ is placed inside one of the shells at a distance $d/2$ from the center,on the line connecting the centers of the two shells,as shown in the figure. What is the net force on the charge $q$?

  • A
    $\frac{qQ}{361\pi \varepsilon_0 d^2}$ to the left
  • B
    $\frac{qQ}{361\pi \varepsilon_0 d^2}$ to the right
  • C
    $\frac{362qQ}{361\pi \varepsilon_0 d^2}$ to the left
  • D
    $\frac{360qQ}{361\pi \varepsilon_0 d^2}$ to the right
