Question
A thin metallic spherical shell contains a charge $Q$ on it. A point charge $+q$ is placed at the centre of the shell and another charge $q'$ is placed outside it as shown in fig. All  the three charges are positive. The force on the central charge due to the shell is :-

Answer

Note that there is no field inside the metallic shell.
