An infinitely long conductive wire of radius a is inside an infinitely long and very thin sheath of radius b. Constant I current goes from the conductor wire and returns from the cylindrical sheath. The current density is assumed to be uniform at the wire and sheath. Write the expressions of the magnetic field that are valid inside the wire, between the wire and the sheath and outside the sheath.
