Detailed Solution

Let C1  and  C2  be the centers of the two spheres and r  be position vector from C1  and  C2
Question Image

Consider a point P in the overlapping region. Let p1 is the position vector of P w, r, f C1  and  r1  is the unit vector along r1Similarly,r2  Is the position vector electric field at P is given by 
EQ=14π0[43πR3ρ1(2R)2i43πR3ρ2R2]=O
=ρ30(r1r2)=ρ30r
The electric field Ep  is a constant in magnitude and has same direction  (formC1andC2) at all points in the overlapping region . Since the electric field is non zero the potential is not constant
