Detailed Solution

When r<R1, the mass lies inside the smaller shell, 

According to shell theorem, force on the mass due to the shell will be zero. 

F=0

When R1<r<R2

Force due to the larger shell will be zero and force due to small shell will be

F=Gm1m0r2

When R2<r

Force due to both shells will be 

F=Gm1m0r2+Gm2m0r2=G(m1+m2)m0r2
