Chapter 7, Problem 31P
The inner and outer conductors of a coaxial cable have radii of 0.5 cm and 1 cm, respectively. The conductors are made of copper with ϵr = 1, μr = 1, and σ = 5.8×107 S/m, and the outer conductor is 0.5 mm thick. At 10 MHz:
- (a) Are the conductors thick enough to be considered infinitely thick as far as the flow of current through them is concerned?
- (b) Determine the surface resistance Rs.
- (c) Determine the ac resistance per unit length of the cable.

The inner conductor in a coaxial cable has a diameter of 2.5 mm while the outer conductor has an inner diameter of 15 mm. If a dielectric with relative permittivity of 3 separates the two, determine the capacitance of a 5 meter length of this coaxial cable?
Two lengths of conductors are made from, i) a single solid copper wire of radius 5 mm, and, ii) a bundle of 25 solid copper wires each of radius 1 mm. For each conductor, estimate the resistance per unit length at a frequency of 1 MHz. You may assume a conductivity of σ = 6.7 × 107 Ω −1m−1 and that the skin depth, δ, is given by δ = r 2 µ0σω .
It is viewed from the cross-section of a coaxial cable consisting of a cylindrical conductive tube with an internal radius R and an outer radius of Rz wrapped around a cylindrical conductive wire with a RADIUS of R. r to indicate the radial distance from the center, the inner cylindrical conductor,if it is j1 = Gr and the outer conductive tube, j2 = Car has improper current densities. Here, the two conductors carry the same I flow in zit directions. What is the size of the B2 magnetic fields at r=1 cm and B2 at r= 8 cm?(R=4 cm; R=7 cm, R3=9 cm; Io=2 A; uo=47.10-7 T.m/A and our aquani-positive forehead outward from the page plane).
