 Solution

The central point charge and spherical boundaries give a spherically symmetric charge distribution. A conductor in electrostatic equilibrium has zero electric field within its material. Consequently a spherical Gaussian surface inside the metal encloses zero net electric charge, so the inner surface carries $-q$. The shell's prescribed total electric charge then leaves $-2q$ on its outer surface. Gauss's law givesThe electric field is singular at the ideal central point charge. At each charged surface the normal component has distinct one-sided limits, as required by the electrostatic boundary conditions at a conductor. Spherical symmetry makes the outer surface charge density uniform:
