Question

A small section of an infinitely long charge distribution is shown at right. A line charge of linear charge density ?line = 1.5 nC/m is at the center. It is surrounded by an inner cylinder is made from insulating material, which has a radius of 1.5 cm, and has a volume charge density given by ?inner. The outer cylindrical shell is made of a conducting material, of inner radius 5 cm and outer radius 6 cm. The outer cylindrical shell has an overall charge per unit length given by ?outer = -2.5 nC/m.

a. Suppose the inner cylinder had a uniform charge density of ?inner = 2.8

Explanation / Answer

please post each question separatelywill be pleased to answer thenfor nowThe electric field of an infinite line charge with a uniform linear charge density can be obtained by a using Gauss' law. Considering a Gaussian surface in the form of a cylinder at radius r, the electric field has the same magnitude at every point of the cylinder and is directed outward. The electric flux is then just the electric field times the area of the cylinder. The electric field of an infinite cylindrical conducto
