Question 5





A -m length of coaxial cable has an inner conductor that has a diameter of mm and carries a charge of C. The surrounding conductor has an inner diameter of mm and a charge of -8.10e-6 C. Assume the region between the conductors is air. (a) What is the capacitance of this cable? (b) What is the potential difference between the two conductors?
