Capacitance  Problem 18:  A cylindrical capacitor is made of two concentric conducting cylinders. The inner cylinder has radius R1 = 19 cm and carries a uniform charge per unit length of λ = 30 μC/m. The outer cylinder has radius R2 = 65 cm and carries an equal but opposite charge distribution as the inner cylinder. Part (b)  Calculate the electric potential difference between the outside and the inside cylinders in V.   Part (c)  Calculate the capacitance per unit length of these concentric cylinders in F/m.   Part (d)  Calculate the energy stored in the capacitor per unit length, in units of J/m.   Part (g)  Calculate the energy stored per unit length in the capacitor in units of joules per meter.
