Consider a cylindrically symmetric distribution of charge. It consists of a tube of charge of radius 0.6 m with a linear charge density of 284.8 x 10-12 C/m that is surrounded by a second tube of charge of radius 4.1 m with linear charge density -188.5 x 10-12 C/m. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field, in N/C, 1.7 m away from the axis of the distribution. Use ?0ε0 = 8.85 x 10-12 F/m. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
A cylinder of length L=5m has a radius R=2 cm and linear charge density 2=300 µC/m. Although the linear charge density is a constant through the cylinder, the charge density within the cylinder changes with r. Within the cylinder, the charge density of the cylinder varies with radius as a function p( r) =p.r/R. Here R is the radius of the cylinder and R=2 cm and p, is just a constant that you need to determine. b. Find the constant po in terms of R and 2. Then plug in values of R and 1. to find the value for the constant p. c. Assuming that L>>R, use Gauss's law to find out the electric field E inside the cylinder (rR) in terms of 1. and R. d. Based on your result from problem c, find the electric field E at r=1cm and r=4cm.
