Suppose you have a cylindrical wire of radius a, where a parallel-plate capacitor is being charged. The
gap caused by the capacitor between the wire is an imaginary cylinder with radius a and length d.
Current I flows through the wire and charges +Q and −Q accumulate on the parallel plates. In the
past we have said that when charging a capacitor, the energy is stored in the electric field.
a. In the cylindrical surface that encloses the volume between the plates, what is the electric field?
b. What is the magnetic field in this surface? Hint: Evaluate at s = a.
