Consider a sphere of radius RRR which carries a uniform charge density ρ\rhoρ . If a sphere of radius R2\frac{R}{2}2R​ is carved out of it, as shown, the ratio ∣EA⃗∣∣EB⃗∣\frac{|\vec{{E}_{A}}|}{|\vec{{E}_{B}}|}∣EB​​∣∣EA​​∣​ of magnitude of electric field EA⃗\vec{{E}_{A}}EA​​ and EB⃗\vec{{E}_{B}}EB​​ , respectively, at points AAA and BBB due to the remaining portion is:
