76. A thin metal cylinder of length and radius is coaxial with a thin metal cylinder of length and a larger radius . The space between the two coaxial cylinders is filled with a material that has resistivity . The two cylinders are connected to the terminals of a battery with potential difference , causing current to flow radially from the inner cylinder to the outer cylinder. Find an expression for the resistance of this device.
