91Ó°ÊÓ

The coaxial cable shown in FIGURE P29.56 consists of a solid inner conductor of radius R1surrounded by a hollow, very thin outer conductor of radius R2. The two carry equal currents I, but in opposite directions. The current density is uniformly distributed over each conductor.

a. Find expressions for three magnetic fields: within the inner conductor, in the space between the conductors, and outside the outer conductor.

b. Draw a graph of B versus r from r=0to r=2R2if R1=13R2.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. The magnetic field in

inner conductor =B=μ0Ir2Ï€¸é12

Space between the conductor =B=μ0I2Ï€°ù

Outside the conductor =B=0

b. The graph between the B and r is

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1: Given information

We have given,

inner conductor of radius =R1

outer conductor of radius =R2

Current =I

we have to find three magnetic fields within the inner conductor, in the space between the conductors, and outside the outer conductor.

02

Simplify

Using ampere's law for closed loop

∫0LB→dl→=μ0IenclosedThen,BL02πr=μ0IenclosedB.2πr=μ0IenclosedB=μ0Ienclosed2πr.................................(1)

The current density inside the radiusR1is given as

localid="1649504415272" J1=iA=iÏ€¸é12

The current density for radial path will be

localid="1649504486700" Jr=iA=ienclosedÏ€°ù2

Then enclosed current will be

localid="1649504528820" J1=JriÏ€¸é12=IenclosedÏ€°ù2Ienclosed=r2R12×I

Put this value in equation (1)

B=μ0Ir2Ï€¸é12

03

Simplify

For the magnet field between the two conductor.

Simply it will be arbitrary

∫0LB→dl→=μ0IThen,BL02πr=μ0IB.2πr=μ0iB=μ0I2πr

For the a magnetic field outside the current carrying conductor will be zero. since there is not have any current enclosed.

B=0.

04

Part (b) Step 1: Given information

We have given,

inner conductor of radius =R1

outer conductor of radius =R2

Current =I

we have to find three magnetic fields within the inner conductor, in the space between the conductors, and outside the outer conductor graphs.

05

Simplify

The graph between the three region magnetic field is varying like as shown in the figure below.
