Question
A coaxial cable has an inner conductor of radius a, and
outer thin cylindrical shell of radius b. A steady current I
flows in the inner conductor and returns in the outer
conductor. Consider the following two cases, A and B,
which describe how current is flowing though the
structure.
In case A the current in the inner conductor is distributed
only on the surface.
In case B the current in the inner cylinder is dist
uted
uniformly over its cross-section.
Which of the following statements about the two cases is
correct (select all that apply)?
The self-inductance per unit length of the cable cannot be
determined unless the current is varying in time
The magnetic field strength in the region inside the outer
conductor depends on whether case A or case B is in effect
The self-inductance per unit length of the cable depends on
whether case A or case B is in effect
The self inductance per unit length of the cable is infinite
