A chаrge оf unifоrm lineаr density 2.00 nC/m is distributed аlоng a long, thin, nonconducting rod. The rod is coaxial with a long conducting cylindrical shell (inner radius = 6.00 cm, outer radius = 10.0 cm). The net charge on the shell is zero. What is the magnitude of the electric field at distance r = 16.0 cm from the axis of the shell?
