A long, straight, cylindrical conductor contains a cylindrical cavity whose axis is displaced by n from the axis of the conductor, as shown in the accompanying figure. The current density in the conductor is given by J=J0k, where J0 is a constant and k is along the axis of the conductor. Calculate the magnetic field at an arbitrary point P in the cavity by superimposing the field of a solid cylindrical conductor with radius R1and current density Jonto the field of a solid cylindrical conductor with radius R2and current density J . Then use the fact that the appropriate azimuthal unit vectors can be expressed as 1=kr1and 2=kr2 to show that everywhere inside the cavity the magnetic field is given by the constant B=120J0ka , where a=r1r2 and r1=r1r1 is the position of P relative to the center of the conductor and r2=r2r2 is the position of P relative to the center of the cavity.
