A cylindrical conductor of radius R = 2.12cm carries a current of I = 2.45A along its length; this current is uniformly distributed throughout the cross-section of the conductor. Calculate the magnetic field midway along the radius of the wire (that is, at r = R/2). Calculate the distance beyond the surface of the conductor at which the magnitude of the magnetic field has the same value as the magnitude of the field at r = R/2.
