Solution 4

The document provides the derivation of the electric field and electric displacement in a coaxial cable using Gauss's Law. It defines charge density on the inner conductor and establishes equations for the electric field (E) and electric displacement (D) based on the given parameters. The results are presented in terms of the relative permittivity of the dielectric material and the geometry of the cable.

Solution:

Here given charge density on inner conductor per unit length=λ.

Let the length of the cable be l.

By Gauss’s Law,Electric field E for R1<r<R2

∮[Link]=Qenc/∈ r,………………………(1)

Where Qenc is total charge and Qenc= ∫ λ dl= λπ R12l

A=Surface Area on which charges are concentrated.

∈ r=relative permittivity of dielectric material.

Now,from equation(1):

E2πrl= λπ R12l/∈ r

Or,

E= (λ R12/2∈ r r)r^, where r^ is unit vector……..(2)

Equation(2) gives the expression for electric field in a coaxial cable.

D =∈ r⃗
Now,for electric displacement ⃗ E

Or,

D=(λ R12/2 r)r ,where r^is unit vector……..(3)

Equation(3) gives the expression for electric displacement for a coaxial cable.
