Question

A very long coaxial cylindrical cable is composed of an inner solid cylinder of radius R1 and an outer hollow cylinder of radius R2,{The space between inner and outer cylinders is empty}. An electrical current I runs through the inner cylindrical wire and returns through the outer cylindrical wire. (a) Write down the magnetic energy density function for both the inner and outer regions of the cable. (b) What is the energy per unit length L, for all regions (Both for inner and outer regions)?

 I did ask the same question last time, but I think the tutor was confused since the radius of the inner cylinder is R1, outer is R2. It's not R1 = 1R, R2 = 2R.

Thank you
