Question
In the figure shown, consider a long hollow
cylindrical metal pipe of inner radius a and outer
radius b in which flows a current I uniformly
distributed over the cross section of the conductor.
I
In order to calculate the magnetic field at a point P a
distance R from the axis, where a < r < b i.e., P is
within the metal,
we carry out a line integral along a path which
encloses all the current in the conductor.
we evaluate a line integral along a path that passes
through the point P.
we evaluate Bd, where di is directed
along the direction of current flow.
it would be easiest to use the Biot Savart Law.
