Transcribed Image Text:The use of superconductors has been proposed for power transmission lines. A single coaxial cable (see figure below) could carry a power of 1.00 × 103 MW (the output of a large power plant) at 200 kV,
DC, over a distance of 1.00 × 103 km without loss. An inner wire of radius a = 2.50 cm, made from the superconductor Nb3Sn, carries the current I in one direction. A surrounding superconducting cylinder
of radius b = 4.74 cm would carry the return current I.

(a) In such a system, what is the magnetic field at the surface of the inner conductor?

(b) What is the magnetic field at the inner surface of the outer conductor?
