igure 8 shows a coaxial cable (two nested cylinders) of length l, inner radius a and outer radius b. Note that l >> a and l >> b. The inner cylinder is charged to +Q and the outer cylinder is charged to −Q.The cable carries a current I, which flows clockwise. Use Ampere’s Law to calculate the magnetic field B⃗ at r < a, a < r < b, and r > b.

Figure 8 shows a coaxial cable (two nested cylinders) of length l, inner radius a and outer radius
b. Note that l >> a and l >> b. The inner cylinder is charged to +Q and the outer cylinder is
charged to −Q.The cable carries a current I, which flows clockwise. Use Ampere’s Law to calculate the
magnetic field B⃗ at r < a, a < r < b, and r > b.
