A capacitor is constructed of two concentric conducting cylindrical shells. The radius of the inner cylindrical shell is 2.37 x10-3 m, and that of the outer shell is 2.47 x 10-3 m
A capacitor is constructed of two concentric conducting cylindrical shells. The radius of the inner cylindrical shell is 2.37 x10-3 m, and that of the outer shell is 2.47 x 10-3 m. When the cylinders carry equal and opposite charges of magnitude 2.0 x 10-10 C, the electric field between the plates has an average magnitude of 3.8 x 104 V/m and is directed radially outward from the inner shell to the outer shell. Determine (a) the magnitude of the potential difference between the cylindrical shells and (b) the capacitance of this capacitor.

A capacitor is constructed using concentric conducting spheres. The inner sphere has radius a, the outer sphere (a thin-walled shell) has radius b. 1. Show that the capacitance is ab/k(b − a) when the space between the inner and outer spheres is empty. Start with the result from Gauss’s law for the field outside a uniform spherical charge distribution (derive the potenital difference between the spheres). 2. What is the capacitance if a = 0.1 m and b = 0.103...
