Suppose a capacitor consists of two coaxial thin cylindrical conductors. The inner cylinder of radius ra has a charge of +Q, while the outer cylinder of radius rp has charge -Q. The electric field E at a radial distance r from the central axis is given by the function: E = aer/ao + B/r + bo %| where alpha (a), beta (B), ao and bo are constants. Find an expression for its capacitance. First, let us derive the potential difference Vab between the two conductors. The potential difference is related to the electric field by: Va Edr= Edr Calculating the antiderivative or indefinite integral, Vab = (-aaoe-r/ao + B + bo By definition, the capacitance C is related to the charge and potential difference by: C = Evaluating with the upper and lower limits of integration for Vab, then simplifying: C = Q/( (e-"b/ao - era/ao) + B In( ) + bo ( ))

Ra1 +9 -9 Rea Consider two concentric spherical conductors, separated by an isolating material with (absolute) permittivity e. The two conductors have radius R1 and R2, they are put on a potential V and V2, which leads to a charge +q and –q sitting on them, respectively. By the problem's spherical symmetry, we see that the charge on each conductor is distributed uniformly, and that, in spherical coordinates, the electric field between the two conductors is of the form E(r) = -E(r) er. Determine the capacity C using the following steps: 1. Use Gauss's Law in integral form, with N a ball of radius r (R2 < r < R1), to find an expression for E(r) in terms of q. 2. Calculate AV = Vị – V2 using the formula - E•dr Δν and with C the black line segment indicated on the drawing (parallel with e,). 3. The capacity now follows from C = q/AV.
