A short section of coaxial cable consists of a line current along the z-axis from z = -L to z = L carrying current ?0?̂ surrounded by a hollow cylindrical shell (centered on the z-axis, top at z = L , bottom at z = -L) carrying a surface current ?⃗⃗ = ?0 (−?̂). Radius R

a. Find an expression for the magnetic field at an arbitrary point (x, y, z)

b. Draw a qualitative graph of the magnetic field as a function of position on the x-axis.

Solutions

Expert Solution

We need to solve it by using Amere's circuital law to find the magnetic field due to the given system of current at any distance (x,y,z)

We can classify the region in 3 parts as shown in Figure-

A coaxial cable consists of alternating coaxial cylinders of conducting and insulating material. Coaxial cabling is the primary type of cabling used by the cable television industry and is also widely used for computer networks such as Ethernet, on account of its superior ability to transmit large volumes of electrical signal with minimum distortion. Like all other kinds of cables, however, coaxial cables also have some inductance that has undesirable effects, such as producing some distortion and heating.Consider a long...
