E = -dV/dr = - w g which is constant

so at any r find the charge inside from Gauss
E * (4/3)pi r^2 = Q/eo
Q = (4/3) pi r^2 eo E
so
Q(r) = -w g (4/3) pi eo r^2

Q(r+dr) = - w g (4/3) pi eo (r^2+2 r dr + dr^2)
so charge between spheres =
Q(r+dr)-Q(r) = -w g (4/3) pi eo (2 r dr + dr^2)
as dr^2 is << r dr as dr -->0
Q(r+dr) - Q(r) =- w g (4/3) pi eo (2 r dr)

volume between = area of sphere * dr = (4/3) pi r^2 dr
so charge density between = - 2 w g eo /r
thank you very much Damon...you help me alot. thanks
