Question
**Magnetic Field in a Hollow Cylindrical Conductor**

The problem presents a cross-section of a long, hollow, cylindrical conductor with an inner radius \( r_1 = 2.5 \, \text{cm} \) and an outer radius \( r_2 = 7 \, \text{cm} \). A uniform current of 52 A flows into the page through this conductor. The task is to calculate the magnetic field at three specific radial distances: \( r = 0 \, \text{cm} \), \( r = 3.5 \, \text{cm} \), and \( r = 8 \, \text{cm} \).

**Diagrams and Explanation:**

- The diagram shows a hollow cylindrical shell, with two concentric circles representing the inner and outer boundaries at \( r_1 \) and \( r_2 \) respectively.

**Magnetic Field Calculations:**

- **(a)** Magnetic field at \( r = 0 \, \text{cm} \) is calculated within the hollow area (center of the cylinder).

- **(b)** Magnetic field at \( r = 3.5 \, \text{cm} \) is calculated within the material of the cylindrical shell.

- **(c)** Magnetic field at \( r = 8 \, \text{cm} \) is calculated outside the cylindrical conductor.

**Hints:**

- Additional help is provided for each part of the calculation:
  - *Additional hint for (a)*
  - *Additional hint for (b)*
  - *Additional hint for (c)*

**Scientific Notation:**

- Answers should be entered using "E" notation. For instance, \( 3.14 \times 10^{-12} \) should be entered as "3.14E-12".

This exercise illustrates the calculation of magnetic fields in different regions around a cylindrical conductor as per Ampère's Law and the Biot-Savart Law principles.
