Detailed Solution

Electric field at $A (R^{'} = \frac{R}{2}) E_{A} \cdot ds = \frac{q}{ε_{0}}$
Question Image
$\Rightarrow {\vec{E}}_{A} = \frac{ρ \times \frac{4}{3} π {(\frac{R}{2})}^{3}}{ε_{0} \cdot 4 π {(\frac{R}{2})}^{2}} \Rightarrow {\vec{E}}_{A} = \frac{ρ (\frac{R}{2})}{3 ε_{0}} = (\frac{ρR}{6 ε_{0}})$
Electric fields at B:
${\vec{E}}_{B} = \frac{k \times ρ \times \frac{4}{3} π R^{3}}{R^{2}} - \frac{k \times ρ \times \frac{4}{3} π {(\frac{R}{2})}^{3}}{{(\frac{3 R}{2})}^{2}} {\vec{E}}_{B} = \frac{ρ R}{3 ε_{0}} - (\frac{1}{4 π ε_{0}}) \frac{(ρ)}{{(\frac{3 R}{2})}^{2}} \frac{4 π}{3} {(\frac{R}{2})}^{3}$
${\vec{E}}_{B} = \frac{ρR}{3 ε_{0}} - \frac{ρR}{54 ε_{0}} \Rightarrow E_{B} = \frac{17}{54} (\frac{ρR}{ε_{0}}) |\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}| = \frac{1 \times 54}{6 \times 17} = (\frac{9}{17}) = \frac{9}{17} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{18}{34}$
