Problem P. 4480. (November 2012)

P. 4480. In a long straight coaxial cable the centre conductor has a radius of r1, and the outer metallic shield has an inner radius of r2, and an outer radius of r3. (Between the two conductors there is a dielectric insulator.) In the two conductors the current of I flows in the opposite direction. Determine the magnetic induction vector B around the cable as a function of the distance r measured from the symmetry axis of the cable.

Megoldásvázlat. A mágneses indukció (a végtelen hosszú, egyenes vezető teréhez hasonlóan) ,,érintőleges", nagysága

\(\displaystyle B(r)=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi}\cdot \frac{r}{r_1^2},\qquad \text{ha}\qquad 0\le r\le r_1,\)

\(\displaystyle B(r)=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi}\cdot \frac{1}{r},\qquad \text{ha}\qquad r_1\le r\le r_2,\)

\(\displaystyle B(r)=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi}\cdot \frac{r_3^2-r^2}{(r_3^2-r_2^2)r},\qquad \text{ha}\qquad r_2\le r\le r_3,\)

\(\displaystyle B(r)\equiv 0,\qquad \text{ha}\qquad r_3\le r.\)
