2) A coaxial cable consists of a cylinder of radius ? surrounding by a thin cylindrical shell of radius
⃗
2?. Suppose the cable is along the ?-axis. The current density in
inner cylinder is ? = (?0 + ??)?̂,
where ?0 > 0 and ? > 0 are constant. The current in the outer shell, ?? ,is downward (−? direction).
a) Find the magnetic field in regions 0 < ? < ?, ? < ? < 2? and 2? < ?.
b) Find the magnetic force on a point charge, +? on ?-axis at distance 3? from the axis of the
cable, if it is traveling with velocity of ?⃗ = ??̂
c) Find the magnetic force on a point charge, −? on ?-axis at distance 4? from the axis of the
cable, if it is traveling with velocity of ?⃗ = ??̂
