Find the potential $V(r)$ at all points in space for the arrangement of charge pictured above, where there is a point charge $+2Q$ at the origin, a charge uniformly distributed $-2Q$ on the inner shell (radius $R_1$), and a charge $+Q$ uniformly distributed on the outer shell (radius $R_2$). You will need three different answers for the three distinct regions of space.
