$A$ solid sphere of radius $r_1=1 \text{ cm}$ carries charge distributed uniformly over it with density $\rho_1=-3 \text{ C/cm}^3$. It is surrounded by a concentric spherical shell of radius $r_2=2 \text{ cm}$ carrying uniform charge density $\rho_2=0.5 \text{ C/cm}^3$. If $E_d$ denotes the magnitude of the electric field at distance $d$ from the common centre of the spheres,then
