Question

11.) A 59.0 m length of coaxialcable has an inner conductor that has a diameter of 2.58 mm andcarries a charge of 8.10 µC. The surrounding conductor has aninner diameter of 7.27 mm and a charge of -8.10 µC. (a) What is the capacitance of this cable?
C = nF

(b) What is the potential difference between the two conductors?Assume the region between the conductors is air.
V = kV 11.) A 59.0 m length of coaxialcable has an inner conductor that has a diameter of 2.58 mm andcarries a charge of 8.10 µC. The surrounding conductor has aninner diameter of 7.27 mm and a charge of -8.10 µC. (a) What is the capacitance of this cable?

Explanation / Answer

Length L = 59 m

Outer radius b = 7.27 mm / 2= 3.635 mm

Inner radius a = 2.58 mm / 2= 1.29mm

Charge q = 8.1 * 10^-6 C
