Question
1) A coaxial cable is shown below (the cross section is shown). It consists of a solid inner conductor
of radius a that is surrounded by a metal outer conductor (the jacket) that has an inner radius b
and an outer radius c. The inner conductor has a surface charge density of po [C/m2]. The outer
jacket is neutral (i.e., has no net charge). Determine the electric field vector in all regions: p< a,
a<p<b, b<p < c, and c< p. Determine the surface charge density on each of the metal surfaces
(all three of them).
